Faith-Based FEMA

Speaking this morning during a prayer service for the hurricane victims at the National Cathedral, Bush fell into his most comfortable role: evangelical pastor.

"We are humbled by the vast and indifferent might of nature and feel small beside its power."

Bush seems to be vying with John Roberts for the humility award.  But at least he didn't call Ms. Nature a member of the Axis of Evil.

The subtext of today's speech is, if the hurricane has left you down and out, pray for help.

I heard an anchor on CNN this morning refer to "the Post-Katrina Era."  And here I thought we were living in the Post-9/11 Era.  I'm praying for an early arrival of the Post-Bush Era.
