Thank you, Mr. President-dictator, Sir!

Earlier this week, the House of Representatives failed to vote on Congressman Richard Baker's bill to afford help to homeowners whose property was damaged by either Katrina or Rita.

According to the Times Picayune, it turns out it was the Bush White House that left Louisiana's citizens and congressional delegation out to dry.

Baker says the White House says they'll be happy to talk about it in the New Year. Uh, the White House's man on the ground isn't so sure.

Apparently, the only thing Bush is certain about is that he's in charge and the law is whatever he says it is!
