Bushies Profit from Katrina Disaster


While I don't believe in blaming moms for the sins of their children, in Barbara Bush's case I'll make an exception.

Little Bushie had an outstanding role model for the fine art of abject selfishness in Lady Barbara. No wonder Georgie turned out so foul.

When the former First Lady "donated an undisclosed amount of money to the Bush-Clinton Katrina Fund," she made certain that her 'gift' would benefit the Bush family. Cuz Barbara takes the title 'First Family' literally.

Mama Bush's gift was given with the stipulation "that the money be spent with an educational software company owned by her son Neil."

While hundreds of thousands of Katrina victims were displaced and living in abject poverty, Lady Barbara was looking after her own. But profiting off the misfortune of others is what the Bushies do best.

Like Bill Maher said, educational software is just what destitute Katrina victims need most.

One Good Move has the video of Keith Olbermann honoring Lady Barbara with the Worst Person in the World award (Castro took second place).
