"A bigger crock as usual. The awards for Katrina go to Governor Blanco who just wouldn't give the Feds the go ahead when Bush asked her if she needed help."

Why would Bush lie about it, if the lie made him look bad, when in fact (according to you, as usual) Bush was blameless ?
Bush admits Katrina failures

WASHINGTON (AP) %u2014 President Bush for the first time took responsibility Tuesday for federal government mistakes in dealing with Hurricane Katrina and suggested the calamity raised broader questions about the government's ability to handle both natural disasters and terror attacks.

- "Further proof that Obama, while he may be "articulate and clean" and "popular" with the left, he is in fact INCOMPETENT and unfit for the job.

If making verbal goofs is a sign that someone is incompetent and unfit for the job of President...then let me point you towards Exhibit #1, President Bush, a man who can't get through a sentence without mangling the English language.
Or does George Bush REALLY want to pour food on your family?!
And then there's processor2:
"Makes up sh*t, and calls them facts."

- I've been posting all along when I saw how sloppy Sen. Barack Obama, D-Ill., was in handling his high school best friend Keith Kakugawa, (Ray in his book) and then the MySpace debacle with Joe Anthony, that Obama is not ready for Prime Time yet! Sen. Barack Obama needs more polish, something only more time in Politics will give him and he is still too new to dirty Politics as well. Obama needs everything to be perfect for him to shine and Politics is full of potholes, surprises and bumps in the road! Obama's latest Gaffe proves me right and the world is too dangerous and complex right now for a Political rookie. Sen. Barack Obama will be ready in the 2016 Presidential cycle and should use this time in the race for practice, knowledge and experience so he can be better prepared for the future. For those who think I'm against Obama I'm not, I just think the Senator jumped out there too soon and is too new for the challenges facing our nation.

- This year is extremely storm active. I WOULDN'T BE SURPRISED IF THIS IS ONLY THE BEGINNING.
Whether it's global warming, sunspots, the sun heating up or God's retribution doesn't matter as far as readiness and by all appearances the real question IS where we stand on READINESS.
I do know there are some REAL stateside concerns due to YEARS of infrastructure NEGLECT and now a lack of heavy equipment for our traditional EMERGENCY MILITIA -the NATIONAL GUARD. When GEORGE changed their mission to INTERNATIONAL POLICE we gave up that layer of PROTECTION and NO amount of EXCUSES changes the facts.
If he wanted INTERNATIONAL WAR our REGULAR SERVICES should have been INCREASED TO MEET THE NEED not our reserves EMPTIED out!!!!
The military DOWNSIZED a couple decades ago NOTHING BUT strategic idiocy STOPPED GEORGE and his 12 YEAR REPUBLICAN CONGRESS from SUPER SIZING the military without depleting our NATIONAL SAFETY RESERVE.
Pointing fingers doesn't solve the problem but neither does STICKING THE NATION'S HEAD IN THE SAND.
Scientific consensus IS that with a global temperature rise - no matter WHAT the reason is there WILL BE MORE VIOLENT STORMS.
The "looking out for number one" greed and corruption party is OVER.
This nation needs to start thinking about the good of all it's citizens again or it will surely fall by it's own hands - not some ever changing and undefined enemy. - Reply to this comment
- Hmm, you're RIGHT! Why didn't I see that simple mistakes are far worse than intentional lies, like saying that Saddam is hoarding Weapons of Mass Destruction, which has cost THOUSANDS of American lives, tens of thousands of Iraqi lives and BILLIONS of dollars. Boy, maybe I'll be a conservative like you! Maybe not...probably overqualified.

A bigger crock as usual. The awards for Katrina go to Governor Blanco who just wouldn't give the Feds the go ahead when Bush asked her if she needed help. She delayed assistance because she and Nagin were having a pissing contest. Nagin decides to take his family out of state. Empty buses just sat there for days. Amtrak offered trains to get the people out, but Nagin didn't act on it. Instead he told the people go to the stadium and sit there without water, sanitation, food or anything else. Then Fema gets blamed. When the towers went down in New York - City - Guiliani, State - Pataki were right on it. 72 hours later Fema was on board. There is such a thing as state rights and the Feds have to be invited they cannot simply walk in. But Bush also created Katring. He sneezed and poof, down when the levees. - Reply to this comment
- My point about this being a total hit piece by MSM is that it's a HEADLINE. Added emphasis. Bush or someone from the GOP makes a gaffe and the ONLY way it gets distributed is if some average joe was there who got it on tape and puts it on youTube OR it's burried deep in a story with a few lines.
This is a clear attempt by the MSM to dilute the message. - Reply to this comment

- I don't care what the GOP says right now I have had enough of them for a while. So I think I would even vote for a dead monkey before a GOP.

- "incoompetent"
i.e. incompetent.
Also I meant "Federal, State and Local" governments.
Nagin is mayor.
Nagin, Blanco and Bush should all have been removed from office after that Katrina nonresponse. - Reply to this comment

No doubt about it: Nagin and Bush should both have resigned, or been removed by impeachment, after that catastrophe.

- Yes, I know. I was quite dismayed when Bush did it in New Orleans, too.

I suppose not, welfare states, can't blame anybody but the Administration for not taking care of them. After all, if the man don't give them their feed, take care of their children and let them sleep half of the day away, what good is the man. - Reply to this comment
