Will Bush name a Katrina "czar" tomorrow night? If so, who?
Edited on Tue Sep-13-05 08:14 PM by DeepModem Mom
Some have suggested he name such a czar, and they might consider it, in the hope that that person's credibility with the public might rub off on Bush and the WH.

Colin Powell? Stormin' Norman Schwarzkopf? Rudy Giuliani? Bill Clinton?

1. We need no more CZAR's than Russia does.
First Homeland Security then a CZAR. What is this Nazi Germany?

3. Somebody on DU
last week make a funny remark about that.

Something like: Is that like a Drug Czar? Does that mean we'll have more hurricanes?

8. I think they thought Ridge would do the trick --
he looked good on paper, but didn't inspire much confidence!

18. Hadn't thought of that
no sticky fingers for graft, can't object to anything, only problem will be the photo-ops...photogs will have to use telescopic lenses.

But there is that long association with Nixon.

13. think of the worst person possible
Bush always picks someone who is inappropriate for the job, or that seems as if their nomination is a horrible joke.

Let's see.... who could be the worst possible person - maybe Rush Limbaugh?

Or Wally O'Dell?

or Anne Coulter?

21. Laura?
She doesn't seem to know the name of the hurricane. That would make her fit the bill.
