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.
I recall one of the networks interviewing a group of black refugees in a Houston gymnasium. The interviewer kept trying to get the group to blame Bush for their straits. But the refugees would have none of it and unanimously directed their ire toward Gov. Blanco and Mayor Nagin -- totally absolving President Bush.
EXACTLY. Aid was stationed at the Texas/Louisiana border before the storm hit. I saw it.
The rat governor of Louisiana and the rat mayor of NO failed to take the steps necessary to mobilize that aid.
