John Kerry Responds to President Bush's Speech to the Nation

WASHINGTON, Sept. 15 /U.S. Newswire/ -- Below is a statement from Senator John Kerry on President Bush's address tonight on the devastation of Hurricane Katrina:

"Leadership isn't a speech or a toll-free number. Leadership is getting the job done. No American doubts that New Orleans will rise again, they doubt the competence and commitment of this Administration. Weeks after Katrina, Americans want an end to politics-as-usual that leaves them dangerously and unforgivably unprepared. Americans want to know that their government will be there when it counts with leadership that keeps them safe, not speeches in the aftermath to explain away the inexcusable."

"Weeks after Katrina, Americans want an end to politics-as-usual "

So I guess that is why Kerry is putting out this press release bashing Bush and instead of coming together and supporting his efforts.

People down there seriously need help, and the only thing this jackass brings to the table is petty sniping and childish whinging.

He should be ashamed of himself.

"Americans want to know that their government will be there when it counts with leadership that keeps them safe...."

Perhaps the Senator has realized what it is that got him trounced in the election?

I figure Vermont is Waaaay overdue for some new fall colors. Ones they've never seen before.

We'll even be nice and just send them the gay ones.

Didnt Johnboy show up a week late with a plane load of crap that was no longer needed?
