Some of you seem to forget how FEMA and Bush botched the whole Katrina ordeal. Bush was on vacation when Katrina hit and actually went golfing either the day after or 2 days. Cheney was on vacation as well in Wyoming and Condeleeza was in NY doing some shopping and taking in a show for the next few days after Katrina hit.

FEMA was on the Gulf Coast for 3-4 days before people started getting water flown into them. Of course when you put a horse trainer with zero experience in charge of FEMA, what would you expect.

Bush did a really good job of handling 9/11 but his handling of Katrina was a disgrace and his speech in regards to Katrina was a joke

I see someone has zero clue about what happened, how FEMA/NIMS works and how screwed up it got at the local and State levels before it even got to FEMA.

Yeah, it was botched, but at all levels. Trying to put the blame entirely on Bush just shows what a partisan hack you are.

I remember our rescue choppers coming back from NOLA and us searching the aircraft skin for bullet holes...

I agree 100%....People were bashing Obama because he hasn't called the Gov of Florida and how the Gov of La said Bush called him....phone calls do not matter when it comes to human lives. Katrina was a complete and utter cluster from all aspects

Calling me a partisan hack on this board is ridiculous...so many people on here would vote for Bin Laden's corpse for President if it was running as a Republican....don't throw stones old man, when you're just as bad

Horse trainer is just what was needed. He obviously had experience dealing with animals.

Before or after he called the Governor of Louisiana to beg her to evacuate NOLA the day prior to landfall? Or had the 7,000 troops deployed into the affected areas of Katrina to help?

And yes, he called several times to both Governors immediately after the storm:

CNN.com - Transcripts

30 August 2005 Larry King transcript:



And do you honestly think he made partisan speeches on the day after 9/11? Or two days after? Here's the transcript:

CNN.com - Text of Bush's address - September 11, 2001

Want to show me the partisan politics in that speech?

Should the POTUS be a leader who can step forward in trying times and strive to give comfort to those who are grieving or should he hold a press conference to whine and complain about the percentage of the population who happen to disagree with his policies?

Obama is the most UN-American American president in history. I'm sick of him and all politicians in general. One get the impression that none of them actually give a rats azz about the country. This constant deflection to gun control and not being able to utter radical and Islam in the same sentence is despicable. If anyone in DC had a spine we wouldn't be anywhere near the predicament we are in. Heaven forbid if that lying corrupt beyotch Hillary gets elected. Trump may be a loud mouth and crude but at least I get the impression he gives a crap about America.
