Bush live in the Rose Garden now!
Edited on Sat Sep-03-05 09:07 AM by tjdee
He's pimping those sisters he met.

He's talking about rescue personnel... saying that they're not getting the help they need, and that is unacceptable.

Guess who's government it is, jackass!

26. It wasn't the bureaucracy -- it was leadership vacuum at the top
This is the shrub administration's most bizarre ploy which they use frequently -- blame the government. They're the government.

Whether it's rumsfeld blaming the troops -- you go to war with the army you have, not the army you might want -- to bush blaming global warming on the bureacracy -- i've read the report of the bureaucracy -- they never accept responsibility and recognize they are the government.

14. Just like on 9-11, Bush stalled for as long as possibl e
before taking action. Only then does he try to act presidential. Only after as much damage as possible as occured.

25. That is insane--why is he complaining about what he did?
Is he insane?

Whose responsibility does he think all of this is?

Does he think he's just the governor of TX or something?

30. No, that's Chertoff, the Director of Homeland Security
Edited on Sat Sep-03-05 09:24 AM by alcibiades_mystery
He should be fired as well, though. ;-)

Michael Brown and Michael Chertoff should be cashiered immediately.

Here's Maureen Dowd on that:

Michael Brown, the blithering idiot in charge of FEMA - a job he trained for by running something called the International Arabian Horse Association - admitted he didn't know until Thursday that there were 15,000 desperate, dehydrated, hungry, angry, dying victims of Katrina in the New Orleans Convention Center.

Was he sacked instantly? No, our tone-deaf president hailed him in Mobile, Ala., yesterday: "Brownie, you're doing a heck of a job."

31. those sister interviewed by aaron brown

BROWN: Let me ask your mom a question here.

Before you met with the president today -- and our viewers are seeing that now -- before that, were you a little angry with the government and how the government had responded?

BRONWYNNE BASSIER, SURVIVOR: Now, let me just correct you. This is my sister.

BROWN: I'm sorry.

B. BASSIER: And I'm -- that's OK.

But, no, I wasn't angry at the situation, because I knew eventually they will eventually help us in some sort of way. And, like my sister said, he did reassure us that things were going to happen. And I can see that they are happening, because I am in Gautier. And every day, there's people giving us water and giving us ice and telling us that everything is going to be OK.

(CROSSTALK)

B. BASSIER: Like today, Pascagoula and Ocean Springs got electricity. And they said it's just a matter of hours before Gautier gets electricity, too.

BROWN: But -- so, the situation for you in Biloxi isn't comparable, is it, to the situation for the people in New Orleans.

Have you been able to follow that part of the story at all? Are you aware of what it's been like there?

B. BASSIER: Well, today, the actually -- the only reason why I came to Biloxi was because I need to get some clothes for my son and clothes for myself, because I don't have any clothes. And, you know, I just needed to see if I can salvage something down there.

But, walking around, people don't have no water. They still don't have no lights in electr -- in Biloxi. So, it's just complete darkness, you know? No one has anything.

(CROSSTALK)

BROWN: Well, hopefully, the -- to both of you, hopefully, and everyone else, that the president's visit today will help speed up the recovery.

they CAME back to Biloxi to get clothes..........they werestaying in
