They're only dead if we say they're dead

If there were any dead in New Orleans, they’d be in a tourist attraction.

Reuters is reporting that FEMA will not let journalists on the rescue boats looking for survivors in New Orleans. It seems the journalists might take pictures of dead bodies.

Let’s see now…no pictures of dead bodies in New Orleans equals no dead people in New Orleans?

Remind you of anywhere else? No pictures of flag-draped coffins from Iraq equals no dead soldiers in Irag.

Do they really think we’re that stupid? Answer: If we let them get away with this, we are that stupid.

One more thing, while we’re talking about stupid. Just read Bush’s own words here.
