I remember in disasters like this, Bush would be boots on the ground, looking at the damage, listening, comforting and hugging survivors - handing our water.

Except for when he flew over the Katrina damage looking out the window.

He CARED about our country and about Americans/

He cared about people people in his own social class, members of the military, illegal aliens, Iraqis and Ugandans. The rest of us got screwed.

That is just baloney and the worst cheap shot imaniginable. Where was he supposed to land when LA was under total emergency? He was told to stay out at that moment by the Governor. He came back in short order.

My husband made a trip to N.O. in October to rescue a flooded company and bring the work north. The town was still mostly shut down. The company he visited had no electricity, no fresh water, no telephones, no workforce, no AC, water was still standing in the warehouse, and mold was climbing up the walls.

Through miscommunication via our travel agent, he thought he had a reservation at a hotel on Canal Street. When he got out of the cab, he and his friend were stopped by Feds with AK 47s and told he couldn't stay there because the entire hotel had been taken over by FEMA and cadaver dogs. After negotiations he and his friend were allowed to stay, with stringent rules placed upon them. This was 6 weeks after the storm.

My point is that 2 days after the winds calmed, LA did NOT need a Presidential visit and all the security that goes with it.

He cared about people people in his own social class, members of the military, illegal aliens, Iraqis and Ugandans. The rest of us got screwed.

That is just bovine excrement and unworthy. I've met former President Bush on several occasions, as well as his wife. They are 2 of the most gracious and down to earth people you would ever want to meet. I am nobody, yet they treated me as somebody. You are just plain off base here.

Disagree with the man's policies, if you must, but don't disgrace this forum by telling lies about him. You sound like Daily Kos or DU.

“The rest of us got screwed.”

So how exactly did “the rest of us” get “screwed”?

I had to check my browser address to make sure it didn't read www.DemocraticUnderground.com when I read your post.
