The Botox Bimbo speaks (in her characteristically existential manner) about poor people of color being the hardest-hit victims of natural disasters:

(Existential, in this instance, meaning describing what she's seeing from a safe thousand miles away... at least in her be-drugged mind)

Salon.com - War Room: "The first lady: That's just the way it is

Laura Bush just wrapped up a press conference at a sparkling clean and orderly refugee center in Lafayette, La. In a remarkable bit of understatement, she observed: 'This doesn't really look like what we're seeing on television...'

What about the people still stuck in New Orleans? Bush was asked about the fact that most of them are poor and black. That's just the way it is, she said. 'This is what happens when there's a natural disaster of this scope,' Bush said. 'The poorer people are usually in the neighborhoods that are the lowest or the most exposed or the most vulnerable. Their housing is the most vulnerable to natural disaster. And that is just always what happens.'

And? And what? --- Just the way it is, folks, 'just always what happens.' Poor people get raped by the world and that's just what always happens. Cold little plushie, isn't she? She smiles sweetly, the botox and the Xanax both working overtime, then does you with the spiked strap-on of harsh reality and not so much as a reach-around.

It's called 'Compassionate Conservatism.'
