European Katrina aid held up, Bush blamed

President Bush is apparently standing on the runway, personally preventing European aid to Katrina victims[*1] from being airlifted in:

“There appear to be some transportation problems,” Barbara Helfferich, a spokeswoman for theEuropean Union’s executive Commission, told a news briefing.

She said a Swedish plane laden with aid was waiting to take off but had not got U.S. approval to enter the United States.

Well, maybe it’s not Bush personally. I thought I’d try my hand at wacko Blame-Bushism and see how it works. Golly, it’s easy to do. Maybe too easy.
