President Bush has again out-smarted the Democrats. By taking all the heat and responsibility in the Katrina disaster, he is poised to receive all the credit when New Orleans rises again. Natives, tourists, conventioneers and Mardi Gras celebrators will all have the same thing in mind- that this is the city that George W. Bush re-built!
Watch for Noggin and especially Blank-o to try to hog the credit with MSM and lib politicians aiding and abetting.
I believe you are on to something here. The president, by accepting his share of the responsibility has done 2 things. He has forced the Gov and Mayor in LA and N.O. to do likewise (have they) and he has taken all the wind out of the Dems sails. The libs are now left to sniping about the reconstruction efforts which they will certainly do because finger pointing and criticizing is all they know how to do. This will also come back to bite them o the butt as have all the other attempts to bring down a president that it seems is just to smart for them.
