5. Where's George?
AWOL again of course.

Shouldn't he be heading back to DC and ordering whatever assistance is necessary to help get the people out of NO?

9. If Democratic leadership had paid any attention at all
they'd have known that concern over National Guard deployment, leaving Americans unprotected here at home against both natural and man-made attack, has been a seething issue since before the Iraq invasion. Sigh. So many missed opportunities to insist on accountability.

3. "You're on your own."
That's the message from the GOP.

6. That's what happens everytime
there's a crisis since Georgie Boy took over.

9-11, anthrax, NE blackout, terror threats, hurricanes, you name it and Bush goes AWOL.

8. Signs for Crawford.
Where is George? LA needs a President who can take action in the wake of a disaster.

Rub that in the pro-Bush camp's nose.

If there are many unnecessary deaths because of his inaction, he really should be impeached once and for all.
