Of course Bush was on top of this. We all know that. I would like to focus on the rescue and recovery aspect but these donkeys keep wanting to go political on this.
Yep, would of been MORE then willing to declare a temp truce with my fellow Democrat Citizens too. Unfortunately the scum in the "News Media" have to hype this up instead of just REPORTING the News. For eample the Levees should be plugged by this time tomorrow.
Yes, any thinking individual knows it. After last year's crop of hurricanes hitting Florida---his brother Jeb's turf---the President had better information than most, and better advice too.
What is astonishing to me is that even a dimwitted Democrat governor in LA was so unprepared and so lacking in basic leadership qualities, that it took a US president to get her off her @$$ --- to elicit the merely prudent, logical response to a threat which was visible from space (literally) well in advance, and which should have been factored---nay, embedded into the emergency planning of a state vulnerable to hurricanes.
I am inclined to give everybody the benefit of the doubt, to the point of absurdity, and even I think that the state govt of LA and the mayor of NO are criminally negligent here. Criminally!
