That is true...we're not expecting them to get down there and fill sandbags. People are rightly pointing out the double-standard. When GWB did a flyover, he was cruel, insensitive and plain heartless. The media excoriated him over it.
When Obama ignores the situation altogether, it's a non-story.
I guess that is my point. If you’ve ever worked in a crisis situation the last thing you need is the boss showing up.
And a boss that brings an entourage and security constraints...he is doing everyone favor by staying on the golf course.
AsPresident, I want him to come out and say, “It sucks”, and explain why he is not going.
But none of them seem to get that.
