because Rush is right. (As usual).
Politico headline: Rush ‘meant’ what he said about Haiti
“Everything this president sees is a political opportunity, including Haiti, and he will use it to burnish his credentials with minorities in this country and around the world, and to accuse Republicans of having no compassion,” Limbaugh said.
CBS headline: Obama adds Newsweek cover story writing to his plate
What’s the story about? Oh, you know, Haiti.
What better for Newsweek than to have the commander-in-chief of the United States spend his time carefully crafting a few thousand words that put the tragedy in Port-au-Prince in perspective for its readers.
Perspective, eh?
What strikes me as funny about this: given the comparisons to Katrina (which Rush predicted, by the way), if Bush had written an article about Katrina, announced four days after the event, he would have been excoriated. (Not that Newsweek would have even given him a cover story to begin with, but that’s an entirely different post.)
