Gov. Kathleen Blanco, standing beside the mayor at a news conference, said President Bush called and personally appealed for a mandatory evacuation for the low-lying city, which is prone to flooding.

Looks to me like President Bush, "personally" intervened to save lives.

And the media insists on publishing that garbage that Bush doesn't care about blacks. He probably saved more people, and more blacks, than anyone will ever know -- by his personal intervention to get people to evacuate on their own.

Also keep in mind that lots of blacks ignored the evacuation order. It's that mentality some blacks have in NO - "I ain't going nowhere the gov't will come anyway...."

Yes, but since only the wealthiest 1% had the means to evacuate, he was actually leaving the poor in NO to be snuffed by the hurricane. /DU elitist conspiracy
