The Bush administration has swung into crisis mode to relieve the untold damage done by Hurricane Katrina. Karl Rove has been put in charge of damage control. The holes that have been blown in President Bush's popularity ratings and his credibility threaten to swamp the White House itself, so Rove, along with White House communications director Dan Bartlett, were described by the New York Times as moving rapidly yesterday to shore up Mr. Bush's dykes and levees. "That Karl Rove-- he can move tons of dirt overnight," said an admiring Bartlett.
For example, the Rove machinery was moving swiftly yesterday to blame the Biblical misery of the Gulf coast on available Democratic whipping boys & girls ... especially Louisiana Gov. Blanco and New Orleans Mayor Nagin. "Now THIS is disaster relief," sighed a clearly grateful Secretary of Defense Donald Rumsfeld.
Even Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice showed up to look at the damage. She was wearing new shoes.
