Bush is belatedly sending a high-level delegation to southeast Asia to deal with the impending post-tsunamai disaster. Who is leading the team? According to the Today Show, it's Colin Powell and...Jeb Bush. JEB BUSH??!! What the hell is the governor of Florida doing heading out to southeast Asia to deal with an international disaster? My God, they're actually laying the groundwork for 2008. Not only was Bush's initial response deeply unChristian, his later response is deeply cynical and political.
