"THOSE FLOATING CORPSES HAVE GOT TO BE AROUND HERE SOMEWHERE"

Jeffrey Dubner is right, this is wholly inappropriate:

NUH-UH. Yes, the president really just said:

The good news is -- and it's hard for some to see it now -- that out of this chaos is going to come a fantastic Gulf Coast, like it was before. Out of the rubbles of Trent Lott's house -- he's lost his entire house -- there's going to be a fantastic house. And I'm looking forward to sitting on the porch. (Laughter.)

Performing a standup act when you're supposed to be managing the recovery from the greatest natural disaster in American history is bad enough, but it gets even more disgusting than that: Trent Lott has another house. I'll let you take it from there.
