Accountability Triumphs

Compare Bush's steppin' and fetchin' (like their pants were on fire and their asses was catchin' - with nods and respect to the Charlie Daniels Band) to get to the Southeast in the wake of this week's tornadoes and his lackluster response at the destruction of New Orleans. What's the difference between then and now?

Oversight. Bush is quite frankly scared shitless of his own incompetence in the wake of last year's election. Oversight led to the firing of the head of Walter Reed and then, when the Secretary of the Army hired the incompetent who led the hospital into its current situation, the Secretary got sacked, too. Oversight, led by the Democratic party, is leading to restrictions on the Shrub's unrestrained attempts to form a monarchy of the Executive branch. Oversight and the Power of the Purse will stop the United States' downward slide into tyranny and it's Democrats doing it.

In fact, as Ann Coulter's attempt to bring John Edwards down using the word "faggot" indicates, the entire Right is running scared. The Democrats are showing them how to rule and all they have left are baseless insults. And Bush running to a disaster to show what a good leader he is. Without Democrats in power, he still would have been reading "My Pet Goat" and looking stupid for the cameras.
