Uh, until last month, when did Dubya ever veto a spending bill of any sort?

My father and a few of my friends got into the “Dubya cut FEMA funding and that’s why NOLA was a mess” mantra. When pressed, they all claimed that Dubya veto’d the funding before Katrina.

I challenged them on that point, and in spite of numerous quotes saying that Dubya hadn’t vetoed any bill since he was POTUS, they still maintained their stance.

Sadly, the first casualty of activism is truth...

It won’t take much work to go back and get some of the anecdotal stories re Katrina and monies. There is even video of the NOLA “victims” swearing at Shepard Smith because the FEMA cards were frozen after the “victims” bought Gucci handbags and casino chips with the cards. Whenever anyone mentions Katrina to me, I round on them like a demented pitbull. I can’t stand that entire obscenity, and and and...RAY NAGIN GOT RE-ELECTED!!!
