Rice For The White House

April 24, 2008 at 8:45 am

So sad to hear about the rice shortage.

Of course, it being Passover right now, I’m not directly affected.  Can’t eat it during Passover (unless I’m Sephardic, of course, which I’m not, but I sure do love those folks).
Still, once Passover is over, you bet I’ll be outraged about the rice shortage.  Should I even blame President Bush?

It wouldn’t be without precedent.

Please join me in remembering Bob Schieffer’s question to President Bush in an October 2004 debate with John Kerry:

Mr. President, to you. We’re talking about protecting ourselves from the unexpected, but the flu season is suddenly upon us, flu kills thousands of people every year, suddenly we find ourselves with a severe shortage of flu vaccine. How did that happen?

YES!  HOW … DID … THAT …. HAPPEN?!

Oh, sorry, I joined the outrage there a moment.

Maybe, to solve rice in the White House, we need Rice in the White House?
