Compare McCain and Obama's Responses to Disaster

Lashe, posting at Daily Kos, put together a very telling photo essay on our two main choices for president.

John McCain clearly made the better choice. As Hurricane Katrina raged and the government sat idly by, he knew that it was President Bush's birthday and that a birthday is best celebrated with a nice cake. McCain is a wise man, and, as we see here, very generous.

Barack Obama, on the other hand, when faced with massive flooding, took a shovel and pitched in, helping fill sandbags. But, we ask, what are a few sandbags in the face of such a great challenge? Clearly, very little.

Look at it in perspective: A presidential birthday only comes once a year. But we have so many disasters we don't know what to do with them all; we have to give them names to keep track!

John McCain for President. He doesn't forget birthdays.
