Your ignorance is rather telling though it raises another question. If you’re too lazy to have even a cursory level of knowledge relating to the debacle that was Hurricane Katrina then how the heck are you in any position to defend dumbo dubya? Oh wait - you’re a bot. Always defend the Prince.
Katrina: What the Media Missed

But of course your hatred of all things Bush will just slag it off.
Katrina was a category 4 hurricane. This one was a cat 1. Big difference.
ROTFLMAO! From the article YOU linked to:
“There were problems, true: FEMA melted down. Political leaders, from the Mayor to Governor to the White House, showed “A Failure of Initiative”, as a recent House report put it. That report, along with sharply critical studies by the White House and the Senate, delve into the myriad of breakdowns, shortages and miscommunications that hampered relief efforts.”
Thanks for proving my point. Now go back to worshiping at your Dubya shrine. The rest of us have a country to fix no thanks to him.
Yeah, like Obama is going to fix it.
"I love my worshipers! They're too starry eyed to understand that its thanks to my screwing up the country and tanking the economy that Obama ended up being elected in the first place!"
I don’t worship Bush, I blasted him for TARP and the bailouts....but Katrina was totally blown out of a proportion by a media that was totally in the tank for the Rats.
1800 people died. It is true Bush got blamed too much, but it was a horrible disaster.
Natural disasters happen, people die in natural disasters, especially people that are ill-prepared, and there’s nothing government can do to change that.
Oh brother is this a DU thread.
Nope. Here Bush is rightfully assigned blame for being a failure. Want hero worship? Try a “Daily Dose’ thread.
I don’t need you to give me any advice.
