“There he was, amid the charred remains of some formerly upscale neighborhood, embracing the weary and the dazed victims of the fire. He made a little speech as one of the unfortunate locals was snuggled up to his side, his arm clinching her close. The gesture suggested strength, solidarity, compassion. The resident looked almost reassured.”

The president is a hugger. News at 11. Thank you “liberal media” for screwing us again.

    9/11.
    New Orleans.
    San Diego.
    Bush sure does love photo-ops while standing on piles of rubble.
    Washington has been memorialized standing at the head of a long boat crossing the Delaware river (a place which I live near).
    With all of Bush’s photo-ops while standing on rubble, that is how he should be memorialized. As a master of destruction.
    Rubble in New York.
    Rubble in New Orleans.
    Rubble in San Diego.
    Rubble in Bagdhad.

    Colbert said it best: “I stand by this man. I stand by this man because he stands for things. Not only for things, he stands on things. Things like aircraft carriers and rubble and recently flooded city squares. And that sends a strong message, that no matter what happens to America, she will always rebound — with the most powerfully staged photo ops in the world.”

    Good God, how long has Danielle Steel been writing WaPo copy?

    “The manly chest of the president hypnotized her as they stood in the shadow of the fires. If only, if only he would take her back to the stables and ravish her with those strong, strong hands.”

    Off to wash my brain, now.

    He should fucking do something. The most useless president ever; his only skill is the ability to take good photo-ops, and even then he has a team of helpers set them up.

    …. Oh dear god, he’s the Kim Kardashian of politics.
