BRAAAAAAAINS
A lot of hyperventilating here and here about Bush's comment: "I don't think anyone anticipated the breach of the levees." Now we have proof that he was wrong, because someone at the briefing told him that they were concerned that the levees would be "topped." See here for the obvious criticism. I'll summarize it, with today's "Beetle English Lesson."
Levee- A fancy word for big wall by a body of water.
Breach- A fancy word for hole.
Top- A not-particularly fancy word for "go over."
Essentially, someone warned Bush that there is a concern that the water would rise so high and go over the wall. Bush said that nobody anticipated that the wall would have a big fucking hole in it. If this is a contradiction, what's next?
Bush: "I don't think anyone anticipated some fuckers would fly planes into the WTC."
Video three days earlier
Some Advisor: "There's a possibility that a plane may fly over the WTC."
Newspapers: OMG!!!! BUSH KNEW!!!
