Wexler (D): Bush Administration's Response to Hurricane Katrina a Disgrace

Press Release | 9-03-05 | Lale M. Mamaux

[My Favorite Headache]

This should fan the flames nicely...

[MEG33]

I saw who was pontificating and scrolled on by..

[mewzilla]

However, the Administration's response to this catastrophe is nothing short of a national disgrace. How is it possible that the Administration did not realize earlier what a catastrophe this is?

Why didn't you, Wexler? Cat had your tongue?

[Just mythoughts]

This must be more about voting than a concern for humanity.

[ilgipper]

hey Wexler, you numb-nut, was the tsunami relief completed in 24 hours. Didn't think so, you second rate loser. Disaster relief takes time. It IS a disaster area, and that presents challenges.

[kittymyrib]

Wexler should thank God the Jeb Bush was governor of FL when their FOUR hurricanes hit last year. Can you imagine Gov. Blanco in that situation? It's called "leadership", you whining leftist pig, something Democrats don't know anything about.

[jigsaw]

Democrats like Wexler don't realize that when this country comes under a major attack, America is going to throw them out of the foxholes.

[CBart95]

Finger pointing and blame finding are the first resort of the foolish.

[tiredoflaundry]

Wexler said all that! Shocking I tell you! /sarc

[poobear]

"It IS a disaster area, and that presents challenges."

As the three star General said yesterday after arriving in NO and responding to some lame question by a reporter on MSNBC, "This is a DISASTER! We will respond accordingly. We aren't stuck on stupid!"

That will get a lot of replay. (sarc)

[rightwingintelligentsia]

These must be the new Dem talking points.

From the DNC website, the latest spin:

“Why is it that President Bush was able to send food and supplies to Afghanistan the same day our invasion began, but it has taken five days to even begin to send supplies to New Orleans?"

[LRS]

“Why is it that President Bush was able to send food and supplies to Afghanistan the same day our invasion began, but it has taken five days to even begin to send supplies to New Orleans?"

Because the destination sites for the supplies in Afghanistan weren't under water?

[Prophet in the wilderness]

And it took a Republican President ( President Bush ) to tell them to get off of their butts ( the mayor of New Orleans, and the Governor of Louisiana ) to give orders to evacuate, while they ( mayor of N.O. and the gov of LA ) were dragging their feet to decide in whether they should evacuate or not because they were afraid that they would get sued if the evacuation was not necessary.

[finallyatexan]

I want to know where all the Republican leaders are and why they are not countering these ridiculous statements - they let the Dems spout off day after day and say nothing to defend the President - they should be ashamed and I hope people remember this at the polls.

[mewzilla]

When did Wexler get his double degree in meteorology and prophecy?

To: Robert Wexler

Hey, big Presidential critic! Where were you when Ahab Clinton sold out America to the Chinese army for a campaign contribution? And then built walls to cover his treachery that enabled Muhammed Atta's gang to kill three thousand plus innocent Americans who were minding their own business?

Why don't you mind yours and let President Bush mind his?

[Just mythoughts]

“Why is it that President Bush was able to send food and supplies to Afghanistan the same day our invasion began, but it has taken five days to even begin to send supplies to New Orleans?"

Remember Lawton Childs, Florida, hurricane Andrew. President Bush did NOT need the state, governor for permission to send help.
