It's my eyes rolling when I saw the "Liberal Blogosphere Hurricane Relief" button which took me to the Red Cross homepage.
Wow! First, I didn't know the liberal blogosphere contracted with the Red Cross; second, I had absolutely no idea that the people of Hurricane Katrina would refuse aid from a conservative.

That embodies so much of what has been wrong in the politicized response to the hurricane. Driving me absolutely crazy.
Posted by: zombyboy at September 14, 2005 11:59 PMWhat cracks me up are seriously non-religious people bragging about donating money to the Salvation Army.
Similar thing happened to Hubster at work. He informed them that the Salvation Army was a church. They would NOT believe him.
Posted by: GrumpyBunny at September 15, 2005 05:15 PM"Liberal Blogosphere Hurricane Relief"...that is pretty repugnant. I mean, I HATE the word "blogosphere."
Posted by: Greg at September 15, 2005 06:45 PMOh, come on, Greg. What was the point of attaching "liberal" and then linking it to a a non-partisan, international world relief organization? That is what got me. Why not just say, "Hurricane Relief?"
And you're right; that blogosphere word is just too insulting to stand.
Posted by: Rae at September 15, 2005 09:28 PMGB, are you serious? They really didn't know that the Salvation Army is a denomination?
Posted by: Rae at September 15, 2005 09:31 PMI am joking. I think connecting "liberal" with a charity organization is silly.
