I use the title in its sarcastic sense, since annually our Boy Governor Rod Blagojevich (D-IL) and folks like Durbin and Obama and like-minded cronies around the USA always have the same old levees, floodplains, couple of purposely unshoveled snows, yadda, yadda, yadda, to create the "new" fill-in-the-blank weathermergency, from which...yes, AGAIN...they're going to slam Bush and demand mucho bucks to "recover".
 
Today, believe it or not, the Des Plaines River in Illinois is again nearing flood stage (less dramatically than when it just receded after flooding slightly after snowmelt); this means it could go a foot or so over by the weekend. Seizing the dramatic opportunity of say the Weather Channel reporting on ANYTHING other than dull rote forecasts, it appears the Warren Township High School and grade school have let their students out early to save "the chillllllddddddrrrrreeeennnnnn!!!!!!!!!!!!!" from a watery scourge of God, likely of POSSIBLE proportions it would drive Noah to drink.
 
Mercy stars, sure is a brave, pro-active he-manly anti-Bush-like defender of Illinois there, and he loves children struggling, fretting parents, blocked roadways...oh lawdy, massa Bush, kin yo' bwah Blago have some floodmergency megabucks which he can use to recover and prevent recurrances in this election year?
 
Aw, wait a minute! Those kids are sashaying, not running, in the "magnum rain", and most are piling into the half-block away Warren-Newport library; most have no parents in a rush to come get them, nothing new; roads aren't closed or traffic distressed; no mass or ANY sandbagging going on; nothing but dramatics and "pro-active non-Bush-like closures" as moods take...and no calls to once and for all or AT ALL evacuate those allowed to constantly live right by this constant flooder of usually never more than 9 feet at crest.
 
Oh, Blago and say Louisiana Democrats are non-Bush-like, to be sure; Bush gets that moolah to 'em every time, and every time it disappears, more new urban immigrant housing goes up, and all that's taken away are jobs and agriculture...and yep, not one singleton seems to be spent on say levees or diversion of the Des Plaines River or relocating floodplain dwellers...guess SOME nationals have to stay, 'cause they pull in big easy Federal dollars in lieu of say tax uncollected due to lack of anyone else with income sufficient.
 
Same old same old, no matter how many eons and Presidents come and go; blame infinite strawmen as "the voices" you hear "making" you do or not do something popular; the usual non-responsible attitude, never having a single idea or care to have such ideas, for those who believe the USA is more an abstract form sending State lawyers to tend its abstract health, as if voters were therein just clients to control, discipline, and have someone get a settlement for them, of course lawyer-legislator-social physicians deserving of lofty pay to assure "only the best will be called for office".
 
This is why I continue to support President Bush re Iraq and national security and diplomacy; and why I will support Conservative candidates for 2008 generals. Perhaps Democrats and Independents and some GOP will evolve a post-Convention display of a program for at least stopping things ongoing, unpopular, but "sigh...infinite strawmen are responsible, so why fix the tools used to effectuate the words of any...after all, that's only done for government-backed religions, where the job IS to change the Word employed by God to include that political representation isn't direct, thus you're judgmental if talk up or back simple".
