Bush actually claims he was wrong? Is the end of days near?
We've already written to Carlos Mencia to nominate ex-FEMA director Michael Brown for next year's Dee Dee Dee awards. But, now Bush is actually admitting he is (at least) partially to blame for all the bullshit these people went through. He is quoted in the Statesman as saying, ""And to the extent that the federal government didn't fully do its job right, I take responsibility," he said. "I want to know what went right and what went wrong." We'll tell you what went wrong, W. You appointed your dumb ass horse whisperer friend to a job he knew nothing about. Then, when a huge hurricane engulfed an entire city, you lingered on vacation and accepted a gift guitar, and pretended to be Tom Cruise in "Risky Business" (source: Newsweek) while Brown fumbled and bumbled around like an idiot. Actually, that's not much different than what W. does, anyway.

By the way, the death toll is up to 423 in Louisiana alone.

Round Rock ain't Sixth Street. Well, no shit.
After a woman held a drag show in her OWN Round Rock coffee house, her business received its first ever fire inspection because people were concerned that too many, uh, queer folk, were piling inside. It didn't help that the drag queens were singing, "It's gettin' hot in herre." The mayor showed up to give the owner, Sarah Roberts, a talking to. We love love love sweet little ol' Sarah Roberts (see her picture below the mayor's from the Statesman here) for her defense. She noted that "everybody thinks it's funny and cute" when the high school boys dress up like cheerleaders for some "tradition."

Did your high school have that tradition? Tell us your thoughts in the comments.
