If the administration doesn't WAKE UP to the frustration, disappointment, desperation, and outrage that are building over this, it will be a disaster for the Republican party.

Yeah! Bush should push his magic button and drain all the water immediately. Then he can fly around on his magic carpet picking everyone up!

There's a Democrat Mayor, a Democrat City Council, a Democrat Chief of Police, a Democrat Attorney General, a Democrat Governor, a Democrat Lt. Governor, 24 of 39 Louisiana State Senators are Democrat, 67 of 105 Louisiana State House Representatives are Democrat, there's a Democrat Representative in the House from New Orleans, and one of two Senators in the Senate is a Democrat.

 

New Orleans...A city of criminals...

Thanks. Sorry about the typo.

'morning.

On the live Katrina thread, there is a list of countries that are donating and helping the US. It's a much longer list than I'd anticipated.

He is the last hope of those poor folks in nola.

Exactly. He's the LAST hope, but he was not the FIRST nor ONLY hope. The local and state authorities have failed to lead. The adults are now in charge.

FEMA can't do it's job because the hoodlums are in charge down there and that is a city and state issue. The only reason there are so many people alive in NO is because President Bush saved them. The local and city government seem to have their head in the sand. Where the heck are their homeland security plans- everyone is supposed to have them in this day and age. The President and FEMA could not have know the city of NO is overrun with drug addicts and scumbags. The city has always known that- where the heck are their plans???

[GeorgiaDawg]

I'm beginning to think he's a man of few words and fewer actions. I'm really trying to pull for GWB, but his handling of major crisis issues lately leaves a lot to be desired.

[DeeOhGee]

Try as you may to point the finger at the administration

See my response in 101 and quit making unfounded accusations.

LOL!! And why didn't he huff and puff and blow the hurricane away??

[cicero's_son]

I agree. However, we sometimes want and expect our President to offer comforting words. Especially in times of hardship or tragedy.

It's part of the job description, and right now Bush is failing miserably in that department.
