Hurricane Katrina

According to the Politico, the McCain Campaign will announce McCain’s Vice Presidential choice on August 29th.  It’s an interesting day to pick, since it’s the anniversary of Hurricane Katrina, as slinkerwink pointed out over at DailyKos.  Why does this matter?  Well, on August 29th, 2005 John McCain and George W. Bush were together in Arizona, happily celebrating John’s Birthday.  They joked, and laughed, and had a wonderful time; and they ate lots of cake.  In New Orleans people were dying.

John McCain was complicit in the tragic lack of response to the worst natural disaster in our nation’s history.  He was too busy eating cake with his pal George W. Bush to care about the people of New Orleans.
