Number One in the Nation


Maybe it's just me, but at a time when wildfires are ravaging the west, large swaths of the Southeast are in severe drought, a hurricane is plying its way up the Atlantic Coast, and the Gulf Coast is STILL reeling from the effects of the 2005 storms and federal flood...it just seems that stamping a veto on extensive water management legislation really is giving the finger to the nation as a whole.

Fortunately, it looks like the Decider will get out-voted and see his veto overridden by Congress. But still, the very fact of Shrub's action demonstrates--as if we needed further demonstration--his profound lack of qualification to hold office. Of course, that's just another day in Team Bush mendacity and incompetence.

It's instructive to contrast his "who cares" attitude with his petulance over any delay in appropriating billions to Halliburton (aka "the troops").
