I don't see how this this is "bashing" anything. The article simply reports the fact that the visit did indeed snarl traffic and create logistical problems for tired evacuees, including friends of ours. Any presidential visit would have done the same. The San Diego Union Tribune is a true blue Republican newspaper. There have been politicians and reporters of all stripes crawling around here this past week, capitalizing on the disaster.jkwest wrote:nice to see even this can be turned on its head to bash "mr" President Bush.

I wish my everyday life, disasters included, had a soundtrack to accompany it. Everything would be more ... dramatic. Where can I get one of those soundtrack thingies to follow me around?
Anyone know the source? It sounds very cinematic, and somewhat familiar.

The music is from Gustav Holst's "The Planets" and it's the first movement called "Mars, the bringer of war."MTGuru wrote:I wish my everyday life, disasters included, had a soundtrack to accompany it.

- Tell us something.: "Tell us something" hits me a bit like someone asking me to tell a joke. I can always think of a hundred of them until someone asks me for one. You know how it is. Right now, I can't think of "something" to tell you. But I have to use at least 100 characters to inform you of that.
