Oh, FGS, when would he have done that? The talking heads STILL haven't stopped frothing at the mouth long enough for anybody to get a word in edgewise.
Frankly, I'm sick of the damn blame game; this was the biggest natural diaster this country has ever faced. You people with The Instant Gratification Syndrome need to realize things TAKE TIME.
And it is most assuredly NOT George W. Bush's fault that a bunch of people in New Orleans didn't have the sense God gave a gnat and couldn't MAINTAIN for THREE DAMN DAYS.
Frankly, I'm surprised you're bashing Bush and not demanding that people at least TRY to give the appearance of being able to cope for a couple of hours without raping, pillaging, or murder.
Blame him all you want; you're just helping the Democrats elect the next president.
Then you'll REALLY have something to carp about.
Read and understand my post before you go off on a half cocked rant.
I never blamed Bush for the mistakes the local and state officials made. I've pointed out several times that the local and state officials messed up and then tried to shift the blame onto FEMA and Bush. Is that Bush bashing?
Where do you come off on instant gratification? Where did that come from?
My point, and you even quoted it, is that Bush allowed the misconception that FEMA screwed up and is a first responder to continue. Rather than explaining in a politically savvy way what the proper role of FEMA and federal government is during and emergency, he just addressed it with a "We'll do better next time" speech.
Geesh, I was actually agreeing with you and you still find a way to call me a Bush basher.
