Get Ready for Jeb

The Associated Press reported on Tuesday that Jeb Bush had a hand in initiating the sweetheart $236 million federal no-bid contract (another one) for Carnival Cruise Lines to house Katrina victims. Kudos to Henry Waxman (D-California) for calling on Bush to explain the deal.

Maybe, finally, people are starting to see the pattern here. The Bush administration has functioned as a management board for corporate interests. They have created opportunities and taken advantage of every opportunity to funnel money to their cronies.

If the Republicans manage to steal the 2008 election, we will have more of the same.

I read something in the past few days where Bush was referred to as the "chief squatter." Love it.
