Just a few of the stories on the front page of the Washington Post today, most of which are bad news directly attributable to the current administration and Congress:
- Aftermath of Katrina: the military and National Guard are too depleted from the Iraq war and this is straining their ability to help
- Gas could soon top $3 per gallon
- More than 600 Shiites killed in stampede after rumor of suicide bomber in Baghdad
- More Air Pollution Possible: Draft regulations would ease emission controls on old power plants
- Bush Calls Iraq War Moral Equivalent Of Allies’ WWII Fight Against the Axis (except, of course, Iraq was not threatening any other countries)
- Poverty rate continues to climb
Oh, and “Bush’s Numbers at All-Time Low.” That’s the good news on the front page.
