Maybe a fire is just a fire
By Tim Dickinson:What’s wrong with this country that we can’t just have a natural disaster anymore?
What kind of sick people are we that Fox News has linked the Southland firestorm to Al Qaeda, Glenn Beck suggested that this disaster is some sort of divine retribution for those Malibu-ites who “hate America,” while the Huffington Post has seemed all kinds of eager for this to be The Next Katrina — almost rooting on the Santa Anna winds in the dark hope of adding another failed disaster response to the execrable Bush legacy.
Seriously. Take a breath. How did we become this petty and hysterical?...
How far gone are we that we so easily turn a firestorm into a launching pad for our pet political agendas. Let’s put out the flames first before we fight over the ashes.
Meantime, go cleanse yourselves with a donation to the victims.
