Bush: Katrina recovery will take time
Associated Press

WASHINGTON - President Bush cautioned against placing too much importance on the first anniversary of Hurricane Katrina's Gulf Coast strike, saying Wednesday it will take a long, sustained effort to rebuild the area.

"It's a time to remember that people suffered and it's a time to recommit ourselves to helping them," Bush said. "But I also want people to remember that a one-year anniversary is just that, because it's going to require a long time to help these people rebuild."

The president promised to continue working to make sure the federal government's efforts in the rebuilding effort are efficient.

"To the extent that there still are bureaucratic hurdles and the need for the federal government to help eradicate those hurdles, we want to do that," Bush said.

1. IOW, don't expect a whole lot from the blivet because he has no

intention of delivering.

[rodeodance]

[Binka]

3. Take Your Empty Imbecilic Lies And Shove Them Up Your Ass W

Why don't you eradicate yourself off the planet? FUCKWITTAGE!:mad:

[MaineDem]

4. He is so full of shit!

"...a time to recommit ourselves to helping them,"

How dare he! The administration (you're doing a heck of a job, Brownie) cut and ran from the people of the Gulf a year ago. he can't blow in and promise to recommit when he never followed through on the original promises. He's a worthless scum!

[Fovea]

5. It will take an infinate amount of time

at the rate his government is going.

[gratuitous]

6. Is that what he said at the Misbuttoned Photo Op?

Strange, I seem to recall that when the lights and the cameras were infesting Jackson Square, President Can't-Dress-Himself was saying that New Orleans would be back up and running in no time.

[theophilus]

7. The Bush solution to everything, "Just wait!" We'll our response should

be, "We're tired of waiting! We want leadership that will save our nation and our planet....NOW!"


These NeoCon freaks don't have a clue.

[dbt]

8. Funny. That little March To War took no time at all.

Fuck bu$h.

:argh:
dbt
Remember New Orleans

[kurth]

9. Why hasn't God punished this asshole?

Just wonderin'

[hatrack]

15. Because God is remininding us that paying attention and thinking matter!

And he really, really wants the lesson to sink in.

[LynneSin]

10. Katrina damage is kinda like Bush's stance on the Iraq War

Not happening until after Bush leaves office in 2009

[Sugar Smack]

11. "cautioned against placing too much importance

on the first anniversary of Hurricane Katrina's Gulf Coast strike"

TOO MUCH IMPORTANCE? GO FUCK YOURSELF!!!!!!:grr: :nuke:

[Debau2005]

13. I am sure the citizens of the Gulf Coast

are not going to place to much importance on the anniversary! What an ass...

[neilepi]

12. I wonder if someone will be saying something like this in 2010?

....cautioned against placing too much importance on the first anniversary of the end of the Bush administration, saying that it will take a long, sustained effort to rebuild the country.

"It's a time to remember that people suffered and it's a time to recommit ourselves to helping them because it's going to require a long time to help the country rebuild."

The frustrating thing is that 2010 is an awfully long way away.

18. Bravo!

Well said.

[Dulcinea]

14. I hope someone asks him:

"Why are we spending billions in Iraq when that money could be used to shore up the levees & rebuild the Gulf Coast?" What would the DictatorTot's answer be?

[belab13]

16. Thanks to Spike Lee and HBO for reacquainting

the short attention span JQ public with this disaster. If seeing footage of post Katrina New Orleans and the federal non-response to this disaster isn't enough to make you want to spit with anger than you are beyond hope. Impeach now...

[endarkenment]

17. After last night's installment I have one thing to say.

Go fuck yourself Mr. Bush. You are an embarassment to the nation. The people of New Orleans have suffered quite enough from your malign neglect. Do the world a favor and resign.

[KamaAina]

19. As Don Meredith once said to Howard Cosell,

"You have a firm grasp of the obvious."

What a :dunce: .

because it's going to require a long time to help these people rebuild."

Well, at least he didn't say "those people" -- or did they scrub the transcript again? :eyes:

So help me, I didn't think I could hate the Bushies any more than I already did -- and then it happened, and then nothing happened. :grr:

[truthisfreedom]

20. a little third-world country right here in the good ol' US of A? what, me

worry?

[damntexdem]

21. Yeah, it takes time to recover when ...

your own government keeps kicking you in the head.

[SunDrop23]

22. That dumb bastard.

He's not done squat to help that region. I'd like to tell that chimpanzee looking sonofabitch to go to the Gulf Coast and pick up a damned shovel or rake, then talk to me about recovery.

Sorry for the language. I just can't stand him.
