Bring Out Yer Dead

With Bush's poll ratings on Katrina falling even lower (now just 35%) after his New Orleans speech, Peter Lee at The Smirking Chimp says:

"I think it would have been appropriate if a crowd of vengeful zombies had devoured President Bush during his televised address from New Orleans on Thursday night.

It would have given the evening some much-needed meaning and symbolism.

After all, Bush himself was only down there to try to extract some meager nourishment, albeit of a more refined and political sort, from the corpses, tears, and despairing filth crusting the Gulf Coast.

It would have been poetic justice if the dead could have turned the tables--and more compelling television, too."
