The Blame Bush Game

One thing that the blogosphere of the left can't come to grips with is that if every single time something goes wrong they lay 100% of the blame at Bush's feet that they will not be perceived as credible. There are a few very aggressive and very venomous blogs I have been visiting the last few days that will never get past the 20% core of looneys that they represent. Every time there is a cloud in the sky, it is an opportunity to knock Bush around. If they hit a pothole driving home from work, I am sure you would hear them say "@#&^! Bush".

Leftists always overplay their hand. When the levee broke, within hours they're creating posts showing why Bush is to blame. I honestly think some of them were doing research on New Orleans while Katrina was still a tropical storm. Then the moment the levee breaks "Aha! Did you know Bush cut the budget for this and that and the other thing!" They think of course that somehow a calculated political blame game gives them the appearance of caring about the hurricane victims.

Regardless of what happened in the budget this year, New Orleans and hurricanes greater than
Cat 3 have been in existence a long time. Why wasn't the levee engineered to stand up to a Cat 5 decades ago? Where was New Orleans, where was the state, where were other congresses and administrations? All get a free pass so that one lone man can take the whole blame! This somehow makes them credible? Then add names like monkey and bubble-boy and suddenly it is indisputable in their mind.

Cindy Sheehan uses the death of her son to score political points and now the left exploits the death of Katrina victims for their political gain. Since they overplay their hand, the American people see right through it.
