Michael Brown sent an e-mail to his family and friends this week, complaining about how he’s being treated by we the people, our elected reps and the media. Poor baby. It’s stressing his family too. I’ll bet we can find a few other families in the US who are going through some stress lately. You think?

It’s simple. He’s not a victim, he’s a guy with a good job he’s no good at. In those circumstances, one’s incompetence tends to draw the ire of others. Especially if you screw up and let people suffer and die. People get annoyed, and in the real world one might get fired.

This guy is just a self-centered asshat; it’s all about him, not about the countless victims of Katrina whose lives he failed to save or even slightly improve. But what is it with Bush? Why can’t he fire anybody? It’s easy, you call him into the Oval Office and say, “Heh heh. Look Brownie, we’re gonna hafta let ya go. You need a box fer yer stuff?”

Losers. I think even I could do a better job as president than Bush, and I’m sure I could do Brown’s job a whole lot better. And that’s saying something, since I’m not remotely qualified for either one. But that doesn’t mean much anymore, does it?
