Let's do a re-wind back to '92.

The Feds (as well as the state of Florida) were slow in getting relief operations going after Hurricane Andrew passed thru.

As I recall, the media made hay out of that too- just as they're doing now.

And didn't they criticize Bush two years ago for "getting in the way" when all those hurricanes hit FL and he went down to survey the damage? They said all the commotion he was causing was getting in the way of relief efforts.

It's something we're going to have to accept from the media - NOTHING GW does is going to be good enough.

You need to learn the real story. Lawton Chiles, on advice from the DNC, initially refused the aid that Bush I offered. Then when the hurricane hit, they all sang that Bush I was "too slow." Bastards...
