How ignorant can one man be?
Can you believe this?

This would be funny if we weren't talking about real suffering. From this CNN video of Bush in Biloxi. Bush is talking to two sobbing African-American women who have lost their house, and a white guy:
Bush to women: "There's a Salvation Army center that I want to, that I'll tell you where it is, and they'll get you some help. I'm sorry.... They'll help you.....


Woman 1: "I came here looking for clothes..."


Bush: "They'll get you some clothes, at the Salvation Army center..."


Woman 1: "We don't have anything..."


Bush: "I understand.... Do you know where the center is, that I'm talking to you about?"


Guy with shades: "There's no center there, sir, it's a truck."


Bush: "There's trucks?"


Guy: "There's a school, a school about two miles away....."


Bush: "But isn't there a Salvation center down there?"


Guy: "No that's wiped out...."


Bush: "A temporary center? "


Guy: "No sir they've got a truck there, for food."


Bush: "That's what I'm saying, for food and water."


Bush turns to the sister who's been saying how she needs clothes.
Bush to sister: "You need food and water."

This clown has got to go!
