Okay, I was in Hurricane Katrina in Biloxi, so naturally I didn’t see any of the coverage on TV, newspapers and magazines. How in the world did it get twisted into President Bush being at fault?

"George Bush doesn't care about black people"

Kunta Kanye told me so.

I was far far away in Slovakia, but I saw it on TV.
IIRC, it was not the Hurricane so much as it was the river Levee failure that caused the severe damage.
That was never considered a potential problem prior to Katrina. I guess since they were built by the US government, it had to be Bush’s fault.
I think they also said that the levees were poorly built and could have failed at any time, with or without a hurricane.

Easy.

He had an “R” after his name.

If you were in Biloxi the MSM ignored you anyway, along with the rest of the Mississippi coast. As far as they were concerned, only New Orleans was newsworthy. And then after the hurricane was over I think the MSM was pissed off because the citizens of Mississippi didn’t whine and cry but just set about rebuilding their homes. You all didn’t act like victims although the damage was far worse along the Gulf coast. How dare you be self-sufficient?

Everything gets twisted into Bush’s fault

Republicans had better get good at saying anything at all or rising above criticism. Bush was ‘gentlemanly’ about it. Wimpy is the word

Bush had expected the residents to know how to get out of the way without his getting in the middle of it like the jersey and in sandy

But inner city no’ers and their idiot mayor couldn’t even figure out to reroute two of three incoming lanes of highway nor to get some transportation for the poor people in the path. It was a shocking display of incompetence. And they blamed bush who could’ve shown up a day or two before he did

And republicans are missing it if they don’t think the media will do what they can to blame republicans and or the insurance companies for obamacare
