Pakistan Has New President
Posted: September 6, 2008, 5:37 pm by the godfather
BREAKING NEWS
ALI ASIF ARZARI ELECTED PRESIDENT
Assasinated former Pakistani Prime Minister Benazir Bhutto's widow, Ali Asif Arzari has just been electe the country's next Head of State and Commander-in-Chief of the Armed Forces. He will succeed Pervez Musharaf, who resigned office amidst trailing political blunders and a united opposition fron against the man who 'ran away' from a surging vote of no confidence against him. And again the powerful Bhutto name takes centre stage in the ever volatile Pakistani political landscape. Even former Prime Minister Sharrif Nawaz's attempt at bogging down Arzari's ascend to the top office didnt nothing at stopping this man who, arranged marriage to Asif Zardari in 1987 surprised many people. Their marriage endured separation due to Asif's imprisonment and separation due to Benazir's politics. Their marriage ended when Benazir was assassinated on December 27, 2007. In Pakistan, there is more respect given to married women than to single women. Additionally, a single woman would not be allowed to be head of state. This reality helped Benazir make the decision to agree to an arranged marriage. After their arranged marriage was announced on July 29, 1987, Asif sent Benazir roses every day and gave her a heartshaped ring of diamonds and sapphires. Benazir had met Asif five days before the public announcement of their planned winter wedding. On December 8, 1987, at the Clifton Palace garden in Karachi, Pakistan, Benazir and Asif had an almost traditional Pakistani wedding. Concerned about how some of the Pakistani wedding traditions were extravagant and difficult for poor families, Benazir broke with tradition by trying to keep their wedding simple. She eliminated the dowry, had only two shalwar kameez instead of the traditional nearly 51 dresses and wore only one layer of jewelry. Benazir wore a white silk tunic with gold-embroidery. Asif wore a turban and a cream-colored tunic. Bhutto / Zardari Wedding Photo Asif and Benazir and their families had several days of celebration. The couple said "yes" three times, and at their wedding ceremony Benazir and Asif looked into a mirror together so they could see themselves as a married couple for the first time. Sugar was ground over their heads so their lives would be sweet. Although their wedding ceremony was small and private, in the streets after their wedding there were 100,000 political supporters dancing, singing, firing guns in the air, and enjoying fireworks. Asif and Benazir have a son and two daughters. On love and marriage, Benazir was once quoted as saying, 'I was always told by my elders that love comes after a marriage. In an arranged marriage, there is a mental commitment. You know that you are marrying somebody and he is going to be a part of your life forever. It's a very strange kind of mental journey, which I have not read about or heard about, but feel my own self experiencing."And on keeping her own name, she quipped," Benazir Bhutto doesn't cease to exist the moment she marries; She's the same person. I am keeping my own name." -
Muamar Gaddafi is BACK!!!!
Posted: September 6, 2008, 1:53 pm by the godfather
Gaddafi turns foes into friends .....THE RETURN OF MUAMMAR GADDAFI
Don't just dismiss Muamar Gaddafi just yet folks! As much as you want to rubbish this so called terrorist, the man just has style. And it seems he has an agenda for himself and his country for the long term.
For a better part of my life, I have come to be taught that Libya was the birth place of terrorism, long before Osama became branded the father of terrorism. Libya had been there and done their terrorist thing long before Osama. Kenya under Moi, kicked them out during the early 80's. America bombed them and killed them and abused them. Sanctions we imposed left right and centre, a situation that nearly brought Tripoli to a halt.
Then suddenly we start hearing how is making bosom buddies with East African leaders. He one day jets into Uganda one fine 2007 day to officially inaugurate a mosque (in a christian dominated country) in honor of him. And in what raises eyebrows, Kenyan President Mwai Kibaki is one of the invited guests at the opening ceremony of the mosque.
We are later to be told that Gaddafi had lent Kibaki money to bail him out of a gruelling election and in return, Kibaki would allow Libya privileged business dealing status for its businessmen in Kenya. And until recently in Kenya when secret details of the selling of the multi million dollar 5 star Grand Regency Hotel gem to the Libyan emerged, than did Gaddafi's name pop up. The deal smacked economic and political mischief, that caused severe ripples in Kenya climaxing with that country Parliament passing a vote of no confidence in the Minister for Finance, Hon. Amos Kimunya, and Kibaki blue-eyed boy, who later that week disgracefully resigned!
Other reports disclose Gaddafi's interests in expanding Libyan businesses in the petroleum, mining, tourism and hotels all over the African continent.
Then the shocker! Gaddafi playing host to Condolezza Rice in Tripoli after 55 years of bad blood between these two. And when Rice land in Tripoli, she is met at the airport, NOT Gaddafi himself, NOR Libya's Foreign Affairs Minister, NOR the Deputy Minister for Foreign affairs by a junior staffer at the Foreign Ministry, a Director for American Affairs in the Libyan Foreign Office....
Gaddafi, is back, people, and we are in for more political, antics. This man is squeezing the b***s of once touted big boys and they are grovelling and drooling to kiss is a**e! -

How sick....
Condy Rice, President Bush's pet was yesterday dispatched to Tripoli Libya with all the sweetest words you would imagine. Condy was quoted on CNN as saying, something that went like "... just touching down on the Tripoli soil just brought the nicest feeling and it just struck me how 55 years was such a long time...." !!!!!!!!!!!! Oh My God......
America, that land of democracy (or is it DemoCRAZY) just doesn't wake up one fine morning and start cuddling former bitter rivals just like that.....I put it to you, confidently, that America is up to some mischief, and sadly, John McCain, if he manages to win the biggest prize on the planet, will be the final and biggest beneficiary. I stand to be corrected!

Political Battle lines being drawn
Acting President Banda Rupiah hot Favorite, as MMD Party bigwigs rally behind him
Even before the dust has been wiped off Zambian mourners' feet to the early week State Funeral for the late Zambian President Dr. Levy Mwanawasa, political battle lines are already being drawn as different political forces begun political strategy for the forthcoming Presidential Election slated in less then 90 days to come.
Reports coming out of Zambia say 20 ruling Movement for Multi Party Democracy (MMD) founder members from across the country led by two veteran politicians Vernon Mwaanga and Akashambatwa Mbikusita Lewanika have urged the party’s national executive committee (NEC) to endorse acting President Rupiah Banda as party presidential candidate today as prominent Lusaka lawyer and politician Rodger Chongwe threw his weight behind Mr Banda. Mr Mwaanga suggested that the NEC should elect Mr Banda because he was the only mature candidate among all MMD aspirants and would accomplish Dr Mwanawasa’s vision.
Mr Mwanga, a former Information and Broadcasting minister described Banda as gallant and visionary and stated that the acting president was a unifying factor who without doubt could ensure continued economic growth as he understood and worked closely with Dr Mwanawasa.
Notable MMD founder at a Lusaka conference included former vice-president Christon Tembo, former ambassador to Botswana Milton Phiri, Mbita Chitala, Vera Chiluba, Joe Mwale, Wendy Sinkala and Rosemary Kanyenga.
And while shoring up the acting Presidents CV, Mwanga went on to laud Banda's success in managing to scoop 16 parliamentary seats in Eastern Province because of his 'tireless campaigns for the party.'
Gen Tembo said two weeks before President Mwanawasa left for the summit in Egypt, he (Mwanawasa) spoke with him concerning MMD party issues and its way forward, but he did not disclose he had anointed anyone. Mr Lewanika called on MMD members to give maximum support to Mr Banda saying the man had a great vision for the country considering his rich historical background in running national affairs.
And as the race for the vacant top political office in the land of copper hots up, behind the scenes political maneuvering and horse trading seems to have been triggered in earnest. Former Constitutional Review Commission (CRC) chairperson Willa Mung’omba has withdrawn from the MMD race for the presidential race and opted to throw his weight behind Mr Banda. Mr Mung’omba said he decided to withdraw from the race so as to promote unity in the party and urged his supporters and others to throw their weight behind Mr Banda. -

Politically Savvy Ida Odinga's Style
Posted: September 3, 2008, 12:06 pm by the godfather
MAMA IDA ODINGA STEALS THE LIME LIGHT FROM FIRST LADY LUCY KIBAKI?
The enigmatic and powerful Mama Ida Odinga, Kenya's Prime Ministers wife has once again shown her magnificence and reminded Kenyans what a superb First Lady she would have been.
In turning down a shs. 400,000 per month pay offer by the Kenyan goverment to 'compensate' her services of taking care of the Rt. Hon. Husband, Mrs. Odinga has stolen the hearts of Kenyans aas she yet again sets the example of how women should stand by their husbands no matter what."The Government of Kenya has taken cognizance of the critical role that you play as spouse of the Rt Hon Prime Minister Mr Raila Odinga in projecting a positive image of our nation’s family values.
"In addition, the Government recognises your wise counsel and guidance which contribute to the public good in the course of nation building activities, besides playing hostess during national and other official public engagements.
"In view of the above, and in order to compensate for the above services," the letter said, the State had approved a monthly payment for her of Sh400,000 and allowances when she travels "within and outside the country on official engagements".
Ida said: "The legacy I have built is not worth Sh400,000. I thank Mr Muthaura for appreciating that there is a heavy responsibility that comes by virtue of my position. But I will not take the money.
"I have seen people writing that I should take care of Raila on my own. Surely, Kenyans know I always do that. Kenyans know I have taken care of my husband in good and bad times without help from the State, sometimes in spite of the State. I will continue doing that," she said.
She went on: "I attend at least three functions a day, each of them public functions. I will continue doing that. I host people in the name of the Republic of Kenya.
"People come from abroad, convinced that the practice here is similar to that of their countries. I host them in my house, my private office or in hotels, on behalf of the Republic of Kenya. That is why I thank Mr Muthaura for showing some understanding."
A+ Mama Odinga!! I hope Mama Kibaki's handlers will have her Standard on her desk this morning!

Is John McCain an Israeli Apologist?
Posted: September 3, 2008, 5:52 am by the godfather
MCCAIN'S PROMISE TO NUKE IRAN AND KEEP SYRIA IN CHECK?
It is alleged that if Republican Presidential Nominee John McCain wins the presidency of the United States, that is finished forever! In March of this year, John McCain traveled to Israel where it is alleged he shamelessly pandered to Prime Minister Olmert, the Likudnik extremist Benjamin Netanyahu, and other Zionist Masonic overlords and groveled at their feet. McCain also had a stopover in neighboring, war-torn Iraq, where he was led around Jewish Senator Joe Lieberman. Senator Joseph Lieberman had earlier on in the tour escorted McCain to the wailing wall in Jerusalem. McCain then flew from the Middle East to London where, on March 20th, met super-wealthy Rothschild Illuminati brothers, Lord Jacob Rothschild and Nathaniel Rothschild. He was hosted to an "invitation-only" private luncheon at the luxurious Spencer House, St. James Place. Reports say that McCain promised the powerful Rothschild's that we they to support his bid for the Presidency, Israel's enemies, Iran and Syria, would end up nuclear toast! WoW!!! Nathanael Kapner, a knowledgeable Jew writes in his website Real Jew News, "John McCain knows which side his bread is buttered on. And that's the Jewish side of campaign contributions." Brother Kapner noted that McCain was at the private Rothschild fund-raiser in the posh London Spencer house. Kapner's sage conclusion: "John McCain is bought by Jews via the Rothschilds!" Kapner also reported that McCain recently was forced to apologize to the Jews for having the audacity to say in a speech he had given that, "America is a nation founded on Christian values." Immediately, the Jewish organizations sprang into action, prompting the frightened McCain to trot out before the news cameras and retract what he had said. Well, well, well.... -
Meet America's Current Powerful Spouses

FIRST LADIES IN WAITING
MICHELLE OBAMA AND CINDY MCCAIN
Michelle Obama and Cindy McCain share a dislike of rough-edged U.S. politics. Each tried to talk her spouse out of running for the White House.
Obama, wife of Democratic candidate Barack Obama, and McCain, who is married to Republican John McCain, are both known for an elegant sense of style, lending glamour to their husbands' campaigns. McCain posed in size zero jeans for the latest issue of Vogue. Obama, who has also appeared in the fashion magazine, was praised by style writers for the violet sheath dress she wore to her husband's Democratic nomination victory rally and has been compared to former first lady Jacqueline Kennedy.But the aspiring first ladies have plenty of differences. Obama, 44, is a Princeton- and Harvard-educated lawyer raised by blue-collar parents on the working-class South Side of Chicago. She would be the first African American U.S. first lady. Obama talks often on the campaign trail about being a working mother. Until recently, she juggled a job as a hospital executive with raising two young daughters and lending support to her 46-year-old husband's political aspirations. The strong-minded Obama exudes confidence and is an accomplished public speaker. But her penchant for outspokenness has also drawn some criticism.McCain, 54, the Arizona senator's second wife, is reserved and seems far less comfortable in the limelight when she campaigns with her husband, who is 18 years her senior. The blond, blue-eyed McCain is a former rodeo queen and cheerleader who holds a master's degree in special education from the University of Southern California. She grew up in a wealthy family in Phoenix and is heiress to Hensley & Co, one of the largest U.S. distributors for brewing giant Anheuser-Busch.Last month, she released a tax return showing she made about $6 million (3 million pounds) in 2006.McCain has raised four children, including a daughter Bridget, 16, whom she adopted from Mother Teresa's orphanage in Bangladesh. McCain has travelled the globe as part of her charitable work.McCain's deferential manner puts her in the company of more traditional first ladies such as Nancy Reagan and Laura Bush."She is more in the classic mould of the candidate's wife on the campaign trail," said Calvin Jillson, a political scientist at Southern Methodist University in Dallas.He said McCain has her own version of the "Nancy Reagan stare," the adoring gaze that the former first lady perfected."If you look at Michelle Obama, it appears that throughout their married life, she and her husband have been very much equals," Jillson said. Her image as an equal partner was on display with the celebratory fist-bump the Obama's shared on the night he clinched the nomination last week.America has had non-traditional first ladies before. They included Rosalynn Carter, wife of Jimmy Carter who sat in on Cabinet meetings, and Hillary Clinton, who was named by her husband to lead a health-care task force.Obama met her husband through her work as a corporate lawyer and is his closest adviser, although associates have described her role as less of a policy-oriented one than that of a confidante who provides a reality check.She has acquired an image as a tough-minded task-master.In a favourite line on the campaign trail, the Illinois senator says his wife often reminds him that he's "not a perfect man."When asked about his flaws during one campaign stop, Obama advised the questioner to "talk to my wife.""She will have a pretty long list," he said, starting with his failure to hang up his clothes properly. But some pundits have put some of Obama's criticism of her husband -- that he snores and leaves socks on the floor -- in the category of "too much information."In one comment seized upon by conservative Internet bloggers, Michelle Obama remarked, "For the first time in my adult life, I am proud of my country."That led critics to accuse her of being unpatriotic, saying that her comment made it appear she had not been proud of her country before her husband ran for president.A day later, Cindy McCain told a campaign rally, "I am proud of my country. I don't know about you, if you heard those words earlier -- I am very proud of my country."But she too has drawn criticism. When she refused to release her tax returns critics said her lack of transparency was at odds with her husband's message of openness in government. McCain eventually relented. She has also talked openly about her addiction in the early 1990s to painkillers, originally prescribed for back pain, which she at first kept secret from her husband and family. McCain has also made a full recovery from a stroke that nearly killed her four years ago. Both women serve a crucial role of giving emotional support to their spouses amid the gruelling slog of the campaign. Barack Obama's mood brightens visibly when his wife joins him on the campaign trail. McCain has a similar effect on her husband. -
What they think about Sarah Palin!
Posted: September 2, 2008, 8:45 pm by the godfather
The Amount of Sarah Palin coverage and commentary out there is unreal. It's everywhere, from every direction, in all forms. Here's a taste, according to David Hule, an Alaska Daily News reporter in Sarah Palins hometown of Wasilla.
> What McCain didn't know about Sarah Palin (Atlantic.com)
This year, the intense secrecy with which McCain advisor A.B. Culvahouse completed his vetting of Sarah Palin preserved the surprise. And ultimately, McCain aides say they're sure that the rewards will be worth the risks. But as the Palin pick turns 72 hours old, McCain's campaign is learning as much about her from the media and from Democrats as they are from what minimal political preparation they had.
> Palin electrifies conservative base (Politco.com)
The media elite — as well as elite members of the GOP consulting community — have all but mocked Palin as a former small-town mayor with zero Washington experience. But that view of her totally misses the cultural resonance she carries to crucial Republican power centers and could not be more at odds with the jubilation felt among true believers that one of their own is on the ticket.
> Northern Underexposure (E.J. Dionne Jr. column, Washington Post)
McCain, as far as anyone can tell, met Palin only once before considering her for vice president, and once more before settling on her, which is to say he barely knows her. For the purpose of courting disaffected Hillary Clinton voters and satisfying the social conservatives, McCain is willing to place someone he knows mostly from press clippings and, okay, what his staff insists was thorough vetting, in the direct line of succession to the presidency. There is a breathtaking recklessness about this choice.
> Sarah Palin: The making of a candidate (Los Angeles Times)
"The landscape up here is littered with people who have underestimated her," said Eric Croft, a Democratic former state representative who enlisted her help when he investigated a Republican oil commissioner for ethical breaches. "Maybe she is not ready for prime time, or maybe she is going to litter the national landscape with people who have underestimated her."
> Cindy McCain defends Palin (AP, others)
Asked about Palin's credentials, Cindy McCain told ABC-TV's "This Week:" "The experience that she comes from is with what she's done in the government. And also, remember: Alaska is the closest part of our continent to Russia. So, it's not as if she doesn't understand what's at stake here."
> Palin’s mother-in-law uncertain how she’ll vote (New York Daily News)
Faye Palin admitted she enjoys hearing Barack Obama speak, and still hasn't decided which way she'll vote. "We don't agree on everything. But I respect her passion," she said. "Being pro-life is who Sarah is."
> Palin made impression from the start (Washington Post)
In the months of speculation over whom McCain would pick as his vice presidential running mate, Palin's name occasionally surfaced but rarely as a serious choice. But by the time she arrived in Arizona last Wednesday to meet first with two top McCain advisers and then the next day with the candidate and his wife, Cindy, the job was her's to lose.
Rick Davis, McCain's campaign manager and the person at the point of the vice presidential process, said there was no abrupt change of course in the final hours. Nor, he said, was Palin selected without having gone through the full vetting process that was done for other finalists. That process included reviews of financial and other personal data, an FBI background check and considerable discussion among the handful of McCain advisers involved in the deliberations.
> Long-Standing Feud in Alaska Embroils Palin
For the past several years, Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin, the Republican vice presidential candidate, has been embroiled in a bitter family feud that has drawn in the state police, the attorney general, the governor's office and the state legislature.
> McCain's Mrs. Right (Newsweek)
Palin is an American original. She calls herself a "hockey mom" and manages to juggle the lives of her five children (the last, born with Down syndrome, is less than 5 months old) while running the state of Alaska and routinely antagonizing the powers that be. Last fall a NEWSWEEK reporter visited her office in Anchorage.... As she spoke to the reporter, she juggled two BlackBerrys and a cell phone, with one always buzzing. She seemed unfazed, indeed to be having fun. As strands of hair fell from her librarian's bun she deftly executed an intricate "don't drop the BlackBerry while fixing the bobby pin" maneuver, several times.
> Where Palin made her name (Time)
Normal small-town life for the First Dude and his wife is over. Even as Governor, Palin was still spotted at the market, driving her SUV around town, or worshiping at the nondenominational Wasilla Bible Church. On Friday afternoon, I was able to just pick up the phone and call Palin's parents, who live in town. They had just heard the news Friday morning themselves; they had been out caribou hunting and gold mining — how Alaska is that? — so there wasn't any advance warning for them. Her mother Sally told me this before remembering that she's not allowed to talk to reporters now, that they've been told that they have to learn about the new protocol. She seems genuinely sorry about this. "We're very, very proud of her," she told me before hanging up.
> Poll: Voters uncertain on Palin (USA Today)
Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin faces a getting-to-know-you process as the Republican vice presidential candidate, a USA TODAY/Gallup Poll finds: Most Americans say they've never heard of her. There is also wide uncertainty about whether she's qualified to be president. In the poll, taken Friday, 39% say she is ready to serve as president if needed, 33% say she isn't, and 29% have no opinion

REPUBLICANS vs DEMOCRATSAct 1 Scene 1:One man who answers to a funny name like Barack Obama tickles hardcore Democrats with his rivet ting opening speech at a solid Democratic Convention some three years ago. Standing ovations, blank cheques, access to the corridors of power et all follow suite....But to one Hillary Clinton, he's just a small boy, a passing cloud like on Daniel arap Moi of Kenya; no ambition, no dream, no threat!Act 1 Scene 2:The guy with the funny name decides to take a stab at the presidential nomination process, and still no one takes him seriously. Ahhh, they know, that even if he might just put up a 'fight', we'll neutralise him with the SUPER delegates!!!!Act 1 Scene 3: The bloody young man instead neutralises the 'opposition' using the same SUPER delegates secret weapon and gets to call the shots at the end of the day. His opponents are left crying foul, licking their wounds and with nothing more but kiss his **** for all he cares!Act 2 Scene 1:Enemy 1 is vanquished and within control, by default. The troops have been assembled and aligned to fight Obama's wars. The Democrats pull off a major Party Convention that keeps everyone up all night throughout the world. Climax: The Speech of speeches that showcases a serious brother out for serious business. The Republicans on the other hand are still waiting for John McCain, their preferred prefect to nominate a veep to upstage the soaring and surging Democratic Wave!Act 2 Scene 2:Democrats off stage. In comes the Reds. First of all John's pick for VP shocks Americans literally. Serious commentators every where, whether political, economic, foreign policy analysts, even CNN's Sports Guru Terry Badoo, didn't know who Sarah Palin was. I bet guys in Alaska didn't either. Only John McCain knew her. She is hurriedly brought from stage but her 'supporting' actors are not supporting her at all. Alaskan noise makers are quickly telling the world how she has issues with her ex brother-in-law, an Alaskan State Trooper. The they continue to squeak about her cronyism in allegations that Palin ordered the firing of Alaska's public safety commissioner because he would not fire her former brother-in-law as a state trooper. Then lately her unmarried 17 years old daughter Bristol who is supposedly 5 months pregnant, and making her anti abortion, strong morale family values erode, just like Hurricane Gusto eroded a much anticipated Reds Convention. Act 2 Scene 3:Gusto gate crushes the Reds Party and really rocks the boat. I mean did you see that show! A hurricane comes to town and steals John McCain's show.... Last week it was Obama stealing my show, this week, Gustav???? Damn.....Act 3 Scene 1: Obama, behind the scenes laughing himself off like crazy how everything he didn't plan is working his way, puts on a shrewd political act by castigating those who are trying to dig into the Palin family 'blunders'. And he silences them with harsh tones saying that it is unfair and that family is off political limits! But as he speaks, his lieutenants' guns are smoking and baying for Palin's blood and going for the jugular, directly contradicting the Generals order.... And then Obama retreats to the shadows, and lauuuuuughs some more!Act 3 Scene 2:The gloomy and pale Reds Convention is eclipsed by Gustav as even George Walker Bush and his side kick John you know who try to show sympathy and empathy towards Gustav's imminent destruction agenda! And what a miserable flop it was. '.....one geezer stands up at the convention and orders every red to remove their cell phones and donate to Gustav related charity......" how gross! It just shows how they never have the time to bond and connect with calamity. All they know is...please bring out the cheque book!!!!Act 4 Scene 1:The Blues have been handed arsenal, ammo, and boy are they trigger happy. Lets watch the next act....to be continued..... more pararrazzi storm into Palin's hometown, Wasilla, Alaska -
The Katrina and Gustav Siblings
Posted: September 2, 2008, 2:49 pm by the godfather
WITH THE REPUBLICAN REGIME, AMERICANS, YOU'RE ON YOUR OWN...
In my opinion, Katrina and Gustav are two spoilt brats. Three years ago, Katrina, Gustav elder sister came rudely knocking on the New Orleans coast. Months before she had huffed and puffed, signalling her majestic arrival in New Orleans. The hurricane centre, the government, the local authorities all rubbished her, constantly down grading her.....until she romped home. Causing wanton destruction, she touched every fibre every where she went, leaving behind death, death and more death. And all this while, as people died and suffered and lamented and wondered if they were indeed Americans, George Bush and his gang just sat at watched. The world screamed, abuses were hurled at them, but nothing would unsettle them from the comforts of their seats at the Capital. Three years on Katrina sends her younger brother Gustav, and lo and behold Gustav decided to romp home just when a big party has been laid to celebrate 8 destructive years. So Gustav says to himself' 'well, well, well. Since they want to rock a democratic party, why don't I just rock theirs instead?..." And spoilt, manner less Gustav does just that. Spot dead to coincide with the opening ceremony of the party, spoiling peoples moods, wasting the drinks and food arranged for the party goers and messing up the guest list, with serious guests failing to make it, thus sending their side kicks to represent! The American people on Gustav's path of destruction had better thank their lucky stars that this is an election year, otherwise that Republicans wouldn't give a damn whether they lived or not! And that's a fact. When Katrina came, what was so important that kept George Bush from helping his subjects during that horrible time? Lesson Number 1: The Republican Government only cares about it citizens whenever there is a general election. After that, like Barack Obama said it very well, ......YOU'RE ON YOUR OWN........
Blah blah blah
