Shouldn't Bush be at the command post day and night regarding..
the aftermath of Katrina. So far I read he was eating cake with John McCain, may have been playing golf after his photo-op with hurricane victims, at yet another memorial commemorating WWII. Is Bush only interested in war related issues. This is the biggest natural disaster the United States has ever experienced yet six days have gone by with people still not being rescued, fed or given medical help. The president should be working on this day and night yet he seems to have little concern except for a few meaningless statements and one photo-op to try and bolster his image. It is a national disgrace and Bush must be held responsible for what happened in the aftermath of the hurricane. After all, he is the Commander-in-Chief and the buck stops there.

1. I think it is the OBLIGATION of every MSM outlet to Show 24/7 what
the shrub was doing while people were starting to die.

A montage of the GOP fundraiser, Naval base speech, playing guitar, golfing...looping these clips.

2. Ewwwww Only Democratic elite intellectuals are capable of
reaching that conclusion and are capable of that kind of public service. Republicans are too busy living a balanced life to go 24/7 doing hard work when there's no money in it.

5. He has no interest in his own country.
On 9/11 billions of people instantly rushed to their TVs and internets to find out was happening, but he sat in a classroom reading My Pet Goat. Same thing with Katrina, but strumming a guiter this time.

There are probably people in third world countries listening to the BBC or VOA on shortwave radios who have more interest in what's happening in America than he does.

6. Normally I would agree, BUT
The man is incapable of doing anything constructive. He couldn't run a bath much less run the effort to recover from the disaster. He'd probably f**k things up even worse. At least he is staying away and doing no harm.
