When Louisiana ended its door-to-door search Oct.
3, the number of Katrina-related deaths there
stood at 972. This week, the total reached 1,076,
according to the state Department of Health and
Hospitals. In neighboring Mississippi, where much
of the damage was in rural areas and was more
obvious from the start, the death toll stands at
230, up nine since Oct. 3.

FEMA: Where incompetence is not just a day-to-day
product but a complete way of life.
Reporter (Helen Thomas, I Hope) Mr. President,
Why do you appoint totally incompetent idiots to
your administration?
President Bush43: Well, my fellow Americans and
heterosexual members of the Press Corps, let me
say this about that.
I point with pride (as well as my middle finger)
to the wonderful men and women which I have
appointed as the Right Hand of God on Earth.
Attorney-General Ashcroft - who many thought was
politically finished when he lost the election to
a dead man - not only made an extremely detailed
and intensive study of pornograph, he covered
stone titties and that thing that sticks out on
the other statues - or they would stick out if
those statues were living people.
And Brownie over at FEMA / did you know that for
years before he was fired he did things with
horses? (Hee, hee, Laura likes our horses.)
Oh, one of my helpers just said that Ashcroft
isn't Attorney General anymore but you know how
it goes with those lawyers. As we say in Texas,
"If you want to get along, have a lot of cows and
stuff." (I don't know if Laura likes cows, ha,
ha.)
But, anyway, there's a new guy over there named
Bert Gonzales, who likes torture a lot so he must
be okay because since he likes torture, he
should get along with Mr Cheney and Mr Rummie and
all them.
Say, whatever happened to that nice Republican
boy that used to ask really good questions? He
was always so interested in the military, just
like me.
A reporter (Helen Thomas, I hope) rises and asks,
"Mr President, are you out of your feaking mind?"
Him: Madam, you are delving with National
Security matters and I think anything like that
deals with Mr Bush41 and some of his kids is a
matter of Executive clemency or some of those
other words that you people keep using to just
get me confused.
Now I'm going to go look for that nice young man.
