Katrina Coverage

As much as I dislike Working Assets - even though I know little about them - I dislike Norquist even more, so I'm willing to wish the group luck in this particular case:

Citizens outraged about Katrina and a truck-based mobile billboard sponsored by Working Assets will show up outside the office of Bush administration advisor Grover Norquist as DC's top radical-right policy-makers arrive for their weekly strategy meeting…

The billboard image juxtaposes Norquist's well-known quote from a May 2001 NPR interview with an image of the flooded city of New Orleans. In the interview, Norquist stated: "My goal is to cut government…down to the size where we can drown it in the bathtub."

The ever-creative left will be carrying placards saying things like "Make Levees, Not War" and "Small Government? Big Disaster." Comrades at Daily "Screw 'em" Kos appear to be behind this action.

Norquist was also involved in the suspension of Davis-Bacon.
