| 94. Bush destroyed New Orleans |
|
I have been saying this for months now: Bush destroyed New Orleans. There is no parsing or qualifiers- Bush ruined an American city.
Bush cut taxes for the rich & started the Iraq war, which caused a budget shortfall. So he cuts the Corps of Engineers' budget TWICE. In that budget, in response to warnings from many sides, was money to rebuild the levees. So this money was taken away. Then Bush refused, unlike many presidents before him, and even unlike his response to the FL hurricane, to put relief in place ahead of the hurricane. Then he flat lied to Blanco & Nagin about helping. Bush put his incompetent buddies in FEMA, and they screwed up. Then Bush promises post flood help, but does little, as usual, his mouth saying one thing, and his feet another.
The responsibility for the destruction of the Crescent City is entirely Bush's. When is America going to wake up to this fact? And to those who say that the rest of the country should not pay to rebuild New Orleans, I respond, "you voted that idiot failure into office,, so you better pay for it!"
