If the lefty bloggers can try to exploit pictures of Dubya with a guitar and say he’s strumming while New Orleans gurgles, can’t we play the same game with the politically clueless greedheads at Time magazine? After all, Time subscribers this week are not only receiving their hard-hitting Katrina edition of the news magazine, but the Fall 2005 Time Style & Design supplement,

where the callous upscale American can ignore the hurricane victims and instead ponder which sybaritic consumer good they would like for themselves, the Dolce & Gabbana crocodile and Astrakhan coat on page 23 ($35,000), or the Sergio Rossi giraffe-printed ponyskin boots ($1,260) on page 65. Perhaps the Roger Vivier crocodile sandal ($4,965) on page 91. The timing of that mailing probably should have been rethought.
