Looks to me like Bush has to pay off a Trifecta
1) Massive amounts of resources, both human and physical, sitting in Iraq and can't be used at home.

2) Cut funding for shoring up NO infrastructure, basically gambling that the big one wouyldn't hit while he was president (while ignoring the implications of global climate change).

3) The big one hit NO and the Mississippi gulf shore which is the soft underbelly of United States Energy production and commerce, shutting down multiple refineries and the transport of not only crude, but grain, coffee, foodstuffs, and all manner of expo9rts and imports.

1. Another excuse for Bush to use...
It won't be long until he's blaming every one of his failures on Katrina...

4. I wonder about that
Cause that point's the finger towards we don't have the resources to fix this problem, which, in a roundabout way, points to the stupid Bush Tax Cuts.

And they have been pretty careful to avoid any suggestion that there is any lack of funds.

5.  Do you mean trigotcha? Let's see that phoney strut. Let's hear the
27% to 37 % of his believers cheer him as he struts his phoney strut. Let's here some more propaganda delivered in whiney, bad English. Let's hear him say 'cuz and 'splain as he brags about his trigotcha prizes.

6. He's not only being watched by us as he squirms. We are being watched
in our ER response by our enemy and they are probably liking what they see.

9. You don't suppose.....
that, in his usual modus operandi, GW shook his fist at the skies and let Katrina know who was boss with, "Bring it on!" do you?

History will show that whatever GW touched in his life, turned to poop!
