George W. Bush

The real looters are in DC

Major Owens over at HuffPost has a great piece on the true looters of New Orleans: the corporations and politicians who laid the groundwork for this epic disaster.

Read the whole thing, but he ends with a poem that's on point:

THE WASHINGTON LOOTING OF NEW ORLEANS

Washington looters still running loose
Abusers of New Orleans
Embezzlers of canal repair dollars
Big shot necks too big for a noose.
For the Mardi Gras
Neo-con domestic shock and awe
Bush budget blunders trapped in the crayfish claw.
Grandmothers and babies cry
Urban peasant victims die;
Oh when the Saints come marching in
Judgement will fall on merciless men.
Put street looting logs away
Only political atrocities on the dock today.
Washington looters still running loose
Big shot necks too big for a noose.
