..3 yrs till next election and it didn't hit Texas... :rolleyes:
Yup, LA. has Democratic governor and senators. I'd start there.
Bush was all over himdself offering aid to his brother's state last year. Oh boy, he flew over yesterday to see the damage. Most of his predecessors, regardless of political party, would have already been on the ground seeing things first hand.
Hey, George, how about stop spending our financial future on the cesspool in the Middle East and take care of your own? - Roberta
I am going to shock fishinpox and Moose1 and defend Bush, but just this one time. He did fly over the area yesterday and wanted to stop and have a photo shoot on the ground to show how sympathic he was. I believe the Govenor and the Senator told him they didn't want him there and to keep his butt out of there until they get the survivors rescued first. They said that if he were to stop there they would have to stop the rescue attemps and provide security for the little chicken chit. They thought rescuing the survivors was more important at that time. Than him having a photo oppurtunty. I apologize for defending him and will have to go wash my mouth out now.
Wow guess who Bush is asking to come and help with the disaster in the south. 3 guesses and the first two don't count. He is asking Daddy Bush and President Clinton to come and help raise money for the relief fund to help the people hit by Katrina. I find this very funny. After the sunnami he had Daddy Bush and President Clinton to help get donations to help with the relief fund for over there and they got a lot of money for the people over there. Daddy bush made an attempt and then went about his business of kissing a$$ with the Saudi Oil Magnets. In the mean time President Clinton is still over there working with the people to see that they are taken care of and still getting donations for them.
For being such a bad President, Clinton is still admired by the whole world and very respected by most. He went to the President of Ruwanda and appologized for his feasco there, when he was President. Funny thing is Clinton is admired by their President. Bush is wise to ask for Clintons help because he is still one of the most powerful men in the world today. If Clinton asks any country for help it is almost assured that they will come to our ad. This is something that our President should be doing, but Bush knows it would be usless for him to ask the people that he made fun of and allienated from us.
I find it very reassuring that the one person that he picks to help America is the one person that the Republicans dispise the most, and claimed to be bad for America. This is the man that the Republicans Impeached if you don't remember.
bush is no better, and the impeachment thing was pure politics, but
he SHOULD have been impeached - what would happen to a military officer
if he had done what Clinton did - he (and anybody else) should be held to
the same standards as the military - or higher. It has been twenty-something
years since I was in the Air Force, but I believe adultery and lieing are still
grounds for severe discipline in the military. I know seperation of military and
elected officials is one of our founding principles, but I would love to see
Stormin' Norman as commander in chief, or Colin Powell either. Please, no more
about Clinton, or I'm gonna puke. He was/is a spineless jack-a** with about
as much morals as a stray dog. No, less. Bush is just as bad. Run them all
out of office, and start over. And if you think we should be sucking up to
the UN or other countries so they will come to our aid - I say screw 'em -
don't forget how Russia, France, Germany, etc. were sticking us in the back
with Saddam's regime. Were it not for them, the sanctions might have stood
a chance, and we might not be in this war to begin with.
How many days after 9/11 did Bush and Cheney hide like scared rabbits? He gets no respect from me because he has done nothing to earn it.
Dang it, I will not defend the present admin, but whoever was in office,
it does not take a genius to figure out when we are under attack, the
pres and vp go different ways, and to secure locations.
Where do you people get your information that the government isn't doing anything to help?
