67. This blogger puts it all in perspective...
"...Now, let's leave aside for a moment the discussion of this administration's words to action ratio; is it in any conceivable universe appropriate for the White House to react to a cataclysmic tragedy by taking verbal swipes at former Presidents? This is sickening and disgusting. And sadly, no more than we've come to expect.

So I guess that's it; if the administration thinks it's okay to score cheap points based on the deaths of 60,000 people, well, fine."

"If you could experience empathy, you might actually embrace your role as leader of the Free World and try to do something. You might try to pony up actual money, not just dispatch a destroyer and give out the kind of money Halliburton spills every day.

But of course, it's more important for you to poke fun at former President Clinton..."
