So… I’ve had this blog for a little while. Created it to solve a customer’s problem, and had grand ideas to use it as my outlet. Monica Minor could be honored here. The Emporer’s new clothes could be pointed out as fraudulent. But I’m not seeming to be that good of a planner / writer.
One thing I like about the concept of blogging, is it’s potential to reactivate journalism. I failed to heed the warnings of those who said that the news has been canceled. I thought it was more of that BS from the Right about the Liberal Press.
Dawn’s calling me for breakfast, so more later. Here is what some others are saying. Be sure to check out the last line of Frank Rich’s story.
Falluja Floods the Superdome by Frank Rich, NYT.
As the levees cracked open and ushered hell into New Orleans on Tuesday, President Bush once again chose to fly away from Washington, not toward it, while disaster struck. We can all enumerate the many differences between a natural catastrophe and a terrorist attack. But character doesn’t change: it is immutable, and it is destiny.
A Failure of Leadership by Bob Herbert, NYT.
The chorus of criticism from nearly all quarters demanding that the president do something tells me that the nation as a whole is so much better than this administration.
