phantom power
(25,966 posts)Easily convincing people you are likable and trustworthy, while simultaneously being able to be utterly ruthless with anybody who gets in your way?
In fact, when I say it like that, it starts to seem like a miracle that it isn't even worse.

Seeing Bush and his ilk in the news is like stumbling upon a room full of ugly venal drunk people having an orgy.

(21,363 posts)If none of them showed their faces, or opened their mouths, ever again, it would be too soon.
Now I must go bleach my brain after that image...

(28,394 posts)Red-faced and slurring his words. I guess that is pretty much normal for him though.
Laura looked like she was stoned, as usual.

(36,258 posts)No blinders needed, he can see the disastrous consequences of his incompetence and not feel guilty -- after all, he didn't fail at anything re. NOLA, since he wasn't actually trying to accomplish anything.

(42,752 posts)Short term memory. RW candidates often get voters to vote
against their own interests in large part due to STM.
Admins ... just for info: If the info is of any value, it took about three minutes
for the page to change after I clicked "Post This". I didn't want to click it again
and end up with two or three of the same same post.
End edit.

(14,918 posts)I read a poll a couple of years ago in which about a third of the respondents blamed Obama, who was a freshman congressman when Katrina hit. So thank you, chump, for refreshing everyone's memory.

(2,707 posts)I think Louisiana will be primed to go D again. Bill Clinton beat Bob Dole there 52-38 in 1996, so its very possible for it to vote Democratic.
The way W. is showing his face demonstrates how bad the Bush campaign is.
