Every word is subject to interpretation.
President Bush put a DemocRAT, Michael Browne, in charge of FEMA.
If Ubama put a Republican in charge of ICE, and then this happened, you might have a fair comparison.
Even Katrina wasn’t really Bush’s scandal. They were effective in making it out to be his and there was never any push-back.
The DNC machine in Louisiana failed completely to function and left millions of people at the mercy of the storm. The federal entities by and large worked as intended. And the rescue started once it was federalized. Nothing like that happened in the neighboring states because they weren’t run by Nagin and Blanco.
Even in Louisiana, nothing like that has happened in hurricanes since because, again, Nagin Blanco and the DNC weren’t in charge.
Bush didn’t create a hurricane and ship violent gang members in to NO.
The border crisis is worse because it is the effect of a direct dereliction of duty, while Katrina was a dereliction of duty on the part of the Governor of Louisiana, and the Mayor of New Orleans.
Bush did the right thing - waited until his help was requested before acting on Katrina.
Obama, per usual, is doing exactly the wrong thing by refusing to enforce a valid law. His treachery is a plague on the land.
Besides, it didn't help that Bush refused to defend himself.
Bush didn’t CAUSE the hurricane. ..
It’s Rick Perry’s Katrina as he watches any Presidential aspirations he might have had blow away in the wind.
Obama is the Chief Executive. He is responsible to the people of The United States. The people of The United States deserve a report from our Chief Executive on this and what he’s doing to help. But, instead, he plays pool and goes to parties. That is irresponsibility never before displayed by an American President. He is displaying a “I don’t give a s**t!” attitude that wouldn’t be tolerated from the fry guy at McDonalds.
There is no possible excuse for his behavior. He begged for this job.....twice. Now, he wants to party instead of work? How in the hell can anyone possibly defend his actions in this matter? Everyone knows he should be fired. If this is supposed to be some kind of challenge from the Democrats, then I say pick up the gauntlet and beat the snot out of them with it. Even the Democrat voters know you’re not supposed to be partying when you’re supposed to be working.
GWBush didn’t make job postings and hire people to create the hurricane
Bush, staying away from the ground was, in my opinion, the right thing to do. So many people, police, fire people, emt’s, etc etc have to be solely at the care and well being of the president......N.O. had NONE to spare to baby sit an executive, they were taking care of people who needed care....
How about the real reason for “0blamo the Useless” not going to the border?... He knows the illegals are fraught with contagious diseases, scabies, and lice. Its OK with him to let that flow everywhere in America except he is not going anywhere near it !!!
Every “expert” talks as if the American
people are, this time, going to wake up
and start to notice the damage the Left
is doing.
Kimye the electorate knows.
Border crisis, not so much.
Government relief efforts, federal and state, after Katrina was the largest most successful relief effort in the history of the world. Why are most people so sorry about that?
As much as many of us “dissed” Bush on this forum, he was a gazillion times better than the current mongrel in the white hut.
The media turned Katrina into a dirty word for Bushpublicans. Nothing - not any of these scandals - are Obamas Katrina until the media says it is and they ain’t saying so.
Katrina was a coverup for Democrat failure. It was a phony media propaganda effort to make President Bush a scape goat.
The current problem results from incompetent policy that is gotten totally out of hand. The train is coming off the rails.
