Hilarity, Bush in office for 5 years yet its still Clinton's fault that everything is messed up. Bush didn't keep his promise to reform government, He didn't reform it after 9/11 and I doubt he will do it after Katrina. More lies from the Booshinator.

just business as usual guys.  face it, once your dead it wont matter how you died or even who you were.  Life will go on without you.

the presidency of bush is losing importance and even relevance in my life but I predicted this.  every second term is less than the first since I started noticing back in about 86.

and its klinton if you thought bubba was a commie symper.

It's really easy to pick out the real men.


Some men will say, "It's not my fault.  I didn't cause this."

Real men will say, "It's my responsibility."  That doesn't mean that they caused it.  Or that they are the reason things happened that way.


It means he has the balls to step up and make sure things get fixed.




Well, at least that's what my dad taught me as a kid.  I guess all the liberal dad's did not teach them the same thing.

I wouldn't have apologized, and can't believe he did.

The response was faster than any other hurricane relief before.

Lets not forget that the real people responsible were the state and local leaders keeping the relief efforts out of the area.

I can't believe you guys are defending Dubya after he stepped up to the plate and apologuised for his obvious failure in handling this disaster. On second thought, yes I can believe it.

Why don't you pick up a copy of Newsweek and read just exactly what happened and how it was handled? Oh wait, that is just the liberal media. Perhaps you should tune to your "Fair and Balanced" Fox News Channel and watch their coverage, or are they now just the liberal media?

It's pretty a universal conclusion that Bush screwed the pooch on this one. It's also his own conclusion. Or is he just some ignorant liberal?

The only mistake Bush made was expecting that Governer and that Mayor to do their jobs.

Exactly....EVERYTHING must be started at the STATE level..they are the ones that dropped the ball...I think he was apologizing because people expect that the Federal Gov't should have overstepped it's bounds and did something regardless.

If he had done that, Democratic lawmakers would still have cried foul, saying the feds took over a state matter.

Mr. Bush is in a no win situation. His detractors argue the other side, just for the sake of saying something bad...I mean really do you guys think that ALL the democrats disagree with EVERY policy he has come up with? NO! but they come out against just because he's for it. ...No good has come out of ANY part of the government since it became about squashing the other party and not about what is best for the people they represent.

No, the fact that the Governor prohibited the Red Cross from delivering food and water to the Super Dome was entirely George Bush's fault.

I'm pretty sure the fact that he did not even see one single photo or news report of the disaster (because his aides thought it might upset him) untill that Thursday when they made a DVD for him to watch on Air Force One proves it's the Democrat's fault.

It doesn't matter what we say..they are too angry with Bush since the 2000 election, to see it any other way than the worst possible way they can.  Quicky they are becoming a waste of keystrokes.

You do not IIRC.

Newsweek reported that the reality of Katrina did not sink in for the president until days after the levees broke, turning New Orleans into a watery grave. It took a virtual intervention of his top aides to make W. watch the news about the worst natural disaster in a century. Dan Bartlett made a DVD of newscasts on the hurricane to show the president on Friday morning as he flew down to the Gulf Coast.

The aides were scared to tell the isolated president that he should cut short his vacation by a couple of days, Newsweek said, because he can be "cold and snappish in private." Mike Allen wrote in Time about one "youngish aide" who was so terrified about telling Mr. Bush he was wrong about something during the first term, he "had dry heaves" afterward.

Unlike Dubya, you should read the newspaper or watch TV. Sorry Guns.
