Heckuva-job Brownie is back, sort of

EXCEPT FOR PEANUTS, I don't pay too much attention to the comic strips in the papers anymore. Don't have to. A casual check of the day's news gives me enough laughs for one day. Which brings me to Mike Brown, who is in the photo with George Bush, the fellow with his arms crossed. The president is praising his FEMA director in the wake of the government's bungled response to Katrina: ''Brownie, you're doing a heckuva job." It still draws a laugh,.

Now, reports ThinkProgress. Brownie turns up at Fox News, the refuge of scoundrels, to complain about Obama's itinerary in Europe as tornadoes pounded the Midwest. Says Brownie: "He went to Ireland for God's sake to visit relatives. It's time to come home...in this case, the perception is that the president is detached. He's more concerned about raising a toast to the Queen. People have died."

As it has been said, people who live in glass houses shouldn't throw stones. Particularly in Brownie's case. He's not even running for president.

In keeping with this blog's current theme, perhaps the Republicans should consider a more accurate name change-

G-OH-P

Grand Old Hypocritical Party.
