I think they way she and other people (REps) that are making comments like she has....remind me of the TV military guys that get on TV and question every move that the military has made in Iraq...
They all KNOW, that war plans are basically thrown out the window, after the first day of fighting, and you have to adjust as you go along...
WHEN has there ever been a precedent to compare Bush's reponse to....in order to be so critical...I just don't get how Laura and some others just have totally missed it on this...
An Australian paper is reporting the Red Cross/State Homeland Security story. Not one media outlet in the US can report it but the Ausies can?
Excerpt from:
Bush still not to blame

And remember all those victims in the Superdome, screaming for food and water? That suffering that proved Bush had failed?
The American Red Cross says it tried to bring in supplies to them soon after the hurricane hit, but was blocked by state officials.
It explained: "The (Louisiana) state Homeland Security Department had requested -- and continues to request -- that the American Red Cross not come back into New Orleans following the hurricane.
"Our presence would keep people from evacuating and encourage others to come into the city."
Yes, that suffering you saw was deliberately caused by the Democrat state administration to starve the poor out of New Orleans. So explain to me again why Bush is to blame, Jill. And why it's mean to show the facts that say you're wrong.
