W. stands for Worst Ever

Today:

1) We learned that on Monday, August 29, the White House learned that Hurricane Katrina had toppled NOLA's poorly-built, under-inspected flood walls. The White House's notification about the flooding came approximately 12 hours before President Bush went on TV and said that NOLA had "dodged the bullet."

2) Yet another top former intelligence official has accused the White House of misusing intelligence to convince the nation to go to war in Iraq. He did so not in Mother Jones or The Nation, but in Foreign Affairs, a very, very, very sober, establishment publication.

3) Several newspapers are reporting that I. Lewis "Scooter" Libby blew the cover of an undercover CIA operative (jeopardizing the lives and livelihoods of many of the people overseas who ever helped her/us) with the blessing of his higher-ups.

Hail to the chief!
