'Cause I'm Mr. Brightside
To jump on Ezra Klein's latest meme game: the good news is, once we rebuild the World Trade Center, Rudy Giuliani will have a bitching penthouse.
The good news is -- and it's hard for some to see it now -- that out of this chaos is going to come a fantastic Gulf Coast, like it was before. Out of the rubbles of Trent Lott's house -- he's lost his entire house -- there's going to be a fantastic house. And I'm looking forward to sitting on the porch. (Laughter.)
"And as for all you people wading through water and marinating in your own filth? Eh, I'm sure you'll have okay apartments, too. Ha ha."
Jesus. Goatraping. Christ. Between this and Mary Landrieu's grandstanding, our leaders are looking less like a governing body and more like a circle jerk.
