thread title: Hold Bush accountable for the flooding of New Orleans!

In fact, Bush looked so happy at his fundraiser and has been so notably cavalier about the dying people and devastation in the south, I am raising the question: did the hurricane actually work to Bush's advantage? The rising oil prices are nice for his buddies, of course, but is there more? The damage to refineries and oil rigs - does that help the Bush buddy Saudis? Is there a story here that we are overlooking? Most of the dead and newly homeless people will not be big GOP donors. And there will be great amounts of money involved in rebuilding - will that benefit him or his cronies' companies somehow? Because there's no denying that he looked perfectly happy and has not done a damn thing to help - it seems more than his ususal sociopathic hollowness. He seems PLEASED. Like Nero fiddling while Rome burned. Why?
