Man AM I Ever Glad I Was Wrong About Bush Being Incompetent!
I was so elated to see how rapidly Bush responded to the Katrina threat. As soon as he saw reports Sunday morning that the storm had developed into a category 5 he swung into action. These guys really are the heroes! I thought this was going to be a major disaster.

If Bush had not ordered all of those helicopters, transport planes, and busses to be sent in first thing on monday morning before the storm hit, we could have lost tens of thousands of lives.

The extremely efficient people at FEMA and their experienced and qualified Director, Michael Brown certainly saved tens of thousands more with their immediate drops of food and water to the people remaining in the city. That followed by their rapid, orderly and above all safe evacuation of them immediately there after certainly prevented a disaster like none we have ever seen in this country.

The rapid evacuation of the city by Bush and FEMA most certainly kept the crowds at the emergency shelters from becoming large. And the heavy presence of relief workers and military personnel on hand kept those shelters well secured and safe for the small handful of evacuees that arrived at them. Think if they had not bee there. There may have been murders and rapes. Glad we didn't see that horror.

I have never seen such a serious test of our nation met by such forceful and well directed leadership! Flying colors I tell you!What a country and what an administration! What would be have done had there been a total vacuum of leadership from the top.

Just imagine how tragic this could have been had Bush and his administration not acted immediately to save the city. It could have been tragic. Instead we should all pat them on the backs and let them know how much we appreciate their decisive leadership in this dark hour!

I sure am glad that I was wrong about these folks being self centered, egotistical pigs that care for none but their rich donors. Thank god for you George Bush!

I will never say a bad thing about you or your leadership again!

========================
OOPS! Sorry, I was apparently dreaming there for a minute!

What an unconscionable cluster fuck. Everyone in the administration should be locked into the Superdome with the packs of dogs and rotting corpses while, we tell them over and over that help is coming.

Let these evil bastards kill each other over two MRE's and the pooled rainwater that is still available.

1. Why would you put the dogs through more suffering than they alread
have endured?
We should just lock the regime in the superdome, no food, no water, no toilets and leave them there for 6 days.

You poke at the nest an little and they start buzzing around and slamming into each other.

I have a couple of favorite sites for such activity. Always fun to see them freak and blow a gasket!

21. It's been 5 years, we've got enough data, I think I'll lose the minus
Definitely incompetent AND complicit.

Incompetent + Complicit = IMPEACH

Wake up! Wake up! It was just a dream, just a dream.

Reality is a nightmare, however.

Holy shit, he looks so impotent, so ineffectual, such a miserable failure. He should resign in shame.

on edit: He should save the country & countrymen from his horrid shame & commit seppuku. Anything less is dishonorable.

18. PINCH ME! SLAP ME! KICK ME IN THE JUNK! JUST WAKE ME UP FROM THIS!
Nightmare is right.

I am a prety pessimistic guy about the government and I have to say I never thought in my lifetime that I would see such a complete vacuum of power in this country. It was shocking and sickening!
