Frank Rich was one of the first MSM folks that started taking a long hard look at King George. Rich has a lot to say about the who and when this President decides to honor or morn our dead. Example; the day after the V-Tech shootings, George is in Virgina offering his support and sympathy for the families…yet today, he has not attended one of th 3319 funerals of our fallen men and women in Iraq. Rich has a lot to say today and it is yet again scathing review of the worst President ever.

President Bush has skipped the funerals of the troops he sent to Iraq. He took his sweet time to get to Katrina-devastated New Orleans. But last week he raced to Virginia Tech with an alacrity not seen since he hustled from Crawford to Washington to sign a bill interfering in Terri Schiavo’s end-of-life medical care. Mr. Bush assumes the role of mourner in chief on a selective basis, and, as usual with the decider, the decisive factor is politics. Let Walter Reed erupt in scandal, and he’ll take six weeks to show his face — and on a Friday at that, to hide the story in the Saturday papers. The heinous slaughter in Blacksburg, Va., by contrast, was a rare opportunity for him to ostentatiously feel the pain of families whose suffering cannot be blamed on the administration.
