I really don't know what to say

well I've grown tired of getting upset about these bush people. I am very glad the press seems to have found it's voice since Hurricane Katrina. They lost it, in my opinion, since 9-11. It is good to see them asking the questions that need to be asked again.

So where does this leave a frustrated and tired blogger? Time to turn to a general blog I think. I mean all my " what they hell are they thinking" muscles are tired.

I think it is time to change focus here. At least for me anyway. I still think that this country has in the past four years had gone though a silent depression. Silent because 1/2 of the country went through it while the other half continued to party.

If you have been a person who has had the same job for over the past 5 years, you really don't know what's been going on with the rest of us. My family will probably never recover what we lost.

Do I think God sent the hurricane to New Orleans on purpose? No. But somewhere back in that crazy brain of mine I'm thinking- any coincidence that it took a force of nature to get this country back in a critical thinking mode? To point out the flaws in the Bushes and to ask that all important question about the emporer's new clothes? You know the story. No one would say the that emporer had no clothes on. Everyone pretended he was dressed. And no one would speak the truth. except one little child who spoke the truth and told us the emporer had no clothes on at all.

And after all, who may contol these forces of nature. Just a crazy thought.

There is no excuse or forgiving the fact that people in this country went without food or water for days by the side of the road in New Orleans. While we all sat in the comfort of our homes and watched. I can easily say it is the worst thing I have ever experienced. And I was sitting in my living room screaming at the tv for 3 days.

the bushes will go. and someone will replace them. And the only hope we have is in upcoming generations that they will learn from this somehow and not let it happen again.
