Incredible yet apparently true

The White House is putting Spinmeister and Smear Artist Karl Rove in charge of Katrina Reconstruction.

I think Americablog's Joe in DC speaks for us all when he cries: "What the hell are Karl Rove's qualifications to rebuild a significant part of America? For Christ sakes, didn't they learn anything about putting political hacks in charge of life and death matters?"

Clearly, no. They don't learn. Think back - have they ever?
