Quote of the Day:
President Bush: "[Katrina] brought terrible scenes we never thought we'd see in America … When the rain stopped, this wounded city was laid bare and our television screens showed faces worn down by poverty and despair. And for most of you, the storms were only the beginning of your difficulties” …
"A year ago, I made a pledge that we will learn the lessons of Katrina and that we will do what it takes to help you recover. We looked at what went right and what went wrong, and we're addressing that which went wrong."
…The people of the Gulf Coast can know that at the federal level, and at the state level, and at the local level... we're better prepared."
