Archive for 2 September, 2005Get Mad- Call Everyone and Demand All Resources!September 2, 2005 4:34 pmThis would be funny if we weren’t talking about real suffering. From this CNN video of Bush in Biloxi. Bush is talking to two sobbing African-American women who have lost their house, and a white guy: Bush to women: “There’s a Salvation Army center that I want to, that I’ll tell you where it is, and they’ll get you some help. I’m sorry…. They’ll help you….. Bush: “They’ll get you some clothes, at the Salvation Army center…” Woman 1: “We don’t have anything…” Bush: “I understand…. Do you know where the center is, that I’m talking to you about?” Guy with shades: “There’s no center there, sir, it’s a truck.” Bush: “There’s trucks?” Guy: “There’s a school, a school about two miles away…..” Bush: “But isn’t there a Salvation center down there?” Guy: “No that’s wiped out….” Bush: “A temporary center? ” Guy: “No sir they’ve got a truck there, for food.” Bush: “That’s what I’m saying, for food and water.” Bush turns to the sister who’s been saying how she needs clothes. Bush to sister: “You need food and water.” (from Daily Kos)
