"Katrina? Nope, never heard of her."


SOTU


Not a lot was made of the fact that The Man Who Would Be King failed to mention Hurricane Katrina and the rebuilding of the gulf even once during his most recent State of the Union address (except in the magical world of Blogland and the alternative media of course).

Click the following two pics to watch Alan Shore (played by James Spader) defend a doctor accused of murder for euthanizing five Katrina patients who were dying of dehydration and Elvis Costello & Allen Toussaint perform "Broken Promise Land" from their DVD Hot As A Pistol, Keen As A Blade:
