The Moonbats and Wingnuts get involved...

...in the SoCal fire scene.

For those who don't know, "Moonbats" are wacko-lefties who see everything bad/dangerous/worrisome as a conspiracy of right-wing evil. Wingnuts are the wacko-righties who attribute everything bad to anyone more liberal than, say, A. T. Hun.

Both groups are deranged, unstable, unteachable.

The Moonbats seem to have the notion that Jorge Bush personally set the fires, running from scene to scene with his little box of matches. A virtual moonbat, our pathetic Senator Barbara Boxer, believes that if Bush hadn't gotten us into Iraq, the fires would have been doused Sunday afternoon, just after if not even before they started.

Wingnuts, on the other hand, are convinced that none of this would have happened if the Sierra Club hadn't prevented the clear-cutting of every forest in the land, and the complete paving-over of every patch of bare ground in California. Get rid of conservationists and Al Gore, and everything will be peachy.

If these people had lives and not blogs, I'd have more hope for the survival of humanity.

Our compassionate president sent Michael Chertoff, the pitiful mouthpiece of Homeland "Security," out to San Diego to see what the Feds could do. While he was babbling incoherently and platitudinously about how the government "cares," another interesting story came to light, and was reported on local radio:

The City of San Diego designated Qualcomm Stadium, its pro football field, as a place for refugees from the fires. At present, it is said between 10,000 and 15,000 people are there.

By midday today, officials were asking the people of San Diego to stop sending aid to the stadium. They are overloaded with cots, food, water, medical help and everything else the refugees might need for days to come.

So while the government is making promises and holding press conferences, human beings responded as human beings do and gave everything they could to help those in need.

Fires, earthquakes and floods are natural disasters. Politicians are unnatural disasters.

You would think they would keep their mouths shut until the fires are finally doused. But even that is beyond them. Creeps.

Maybe what we really need is to give more power to human beings and banish wingnuts, moonbats and politicians to well-deserved obscurity.
