Molly Ivins has a fine piece today. The end gave me a good laugh:

Some of you may have heard me observe a time or two--going back to when George W. was still governor of Texas--that the trouble with the guy is that while he is good at politics, he stinks at governance. It bores him, he's not interested, he thinks government is bad to begin with and everything would be done better if it were contracted out to corporations.
We can now safely assert that W. has stacked much of the federal government with people like himself. And what you get when you put people in charge of government who don't believe in government and who are not interested in running it well is ... what happened after Hurricane Katrina.
Many a time in the past six years I have bit my tongue so I wouldn't annoy people with the always obnoxious observation, "I told you so." But I did.
Next time I tell you someone from Texas should not be president of the United States, please pay attention.

"I think I may need a bathroom break...."

He's right. It's too funny not to post.
