I kid you not... from Americablog: Right from the horses ass, Bush orders flags to fly at half staff for white, privileged Republican Supreme Court Justice... oh yeah, and then for the poor victims of Katrina second.
UPDATE: That's exactly what happened. They did it for Rehnquist today, within hours of his death, and realized it would look rather callous not to do it for the hurricane victims a week AFTER the hurricane. So they did both today. The hurricane victims were a CYA afterthought. Lovely.
