King County Democrats

The 2005 Edition of "Let Them Eat Cake"
Write/Call our Senators and Congressman and let them know how outraged we are with the bizarre behavior of the Bush family in times of crises. This is absolutely insane that anyone could think that traumatized, injured, and displaced, New Orleans residents could be better off than they were before. What was Babs thinking? And then there is her son who claims to be a problem solver and says we will get through this...enough! Write a letter today, and then remember to keep giving in support of the needy.

Acorn doesn't fall far from tree

Bush attitude on the poor
And the acorn doesnt' fall far from the tree. Les Payne of Newsday, reminds us of the recollections of Bush's Harvard professor, Yoshi Tsurumi, when he wanted to show the class, "The Grapes of Wrath": "George Bush came up to me and said, 'Why are you going to show us that commie movie?'" Tsurumi recalled. "I laughed because I thought he was kidding, but he wasn't. After we viewed the film, I called on him to discuss the Depression and how he thought it affected people. [[]Bush] said, 'Look, people are poor because they are lazy.' A number of students pounced on him and demanded that he support his statement with facts and statistics. He quickly backed down because he could not sustain his broadside."
