A doll’s view to a greener world

Architects from around the world focused on the big issue of eco-friendy homes by turning to the world of the small - dollhouses, that is.
FULL STORY

United States of Shame
NYT's Maureen Dowd writes with her usual brilliance:

Shirt-sleeves rolled up, W. finally landed in Hell yesterday and chuckled about his wild boozing days in "the great city" of N'Awlins. He was clearly moved. "You know, I'm going to fly out of here in a minute," he said on the runway at the New Orleans International Airport, "but I want you to know that I'm not going to forget what I've seen." Out of the cameras' range, and avoided by W., was a convoy of thousands of sick and dying people, some sprawled on the floor or dumped on baggage carousels at a makeshift M*A*S*H unit inside the terminal.

Why does this self-styled "can do" president always lapse into such lame "who could have known?" excuses?

Worst President Ever?
So, what can we say about this President? This golden boy.

He’s crippled the economy.

He’s decimated our educational system.

He’s given billions to the rich in terms of tax cuts.

He’s given billions to Halliburton via “no bid” contracts in both Iraq and Afghanistan.

He’s eviscerated environmental laws.

He’s allowed the biggest terrorist attack on US soil in history.

He’s launched an illegal, illogical, invasion of a country that wasn’t a threat to America using bogus intelligence claims, costing the lives of tens of thousands of innocents.

He’s revived a billion dollar boondoggle of a “Star Wars” missile defense system…that doesn’t work.

He’s racked up record deficits, while preaching financial conservatism.

He’s created the biggest governmental bureaucracy in history.

He’s stifled dissent and free speech.

He’s isolated himself from real people as would a monarch.

His minions have castrated FEMA, a once effective agency, not only folding it into Homeland Security but appointing leaders who have no experience in disaster relief but were big Bush campaign contributors.

And, while he’s ignored and denied the science that points to intense climate change because of global warming, we’ve been hit by record hurricane seasons.

God doesn’t even seem to like Bush’s America, anymore.

So, maybe God is one of us, after all.

I hope God gets into saving lives in New Orleans and the Gulf Coast pronto.

Because, apparently, the Bush Administration can’t.
