I totally agree, Dave. Katrina seems like exactly the kind of thing the president should be ready to spring into action on, and what we get is guitar pluckin’ backstage. A classic george bush “What me worry?” moment. Nicely done.
Indeed, if the best bush can do is show up 5 days later and say “This is unacceptable”, and essentially wring his hands in a “shouldn’t someone do something about this? Gosh!” fashion, we’re in really big trouble if an UN-predictable emergency happens. Big trouble… dude, we’re totally fucked. Perhaps if we weren’t occupying our military and reserve military in a war sold on a giant pack of lies, we’d be able to put more boots on the ground faster.
Worst president ever. 
And then you get Dennis Hastert saying maybe we should really reconsider rebuilding New Orleans. Nice.
Let’s see.. Cost of fully funding the army corps of engineers’ new orleans levee maintenance programs: $27 million. Cost of only giving them less than $6 million: up to $100 Billion. I mean, that’s totally unacceptable. The corp or engineers is back tracking now so that they don’t lose all their funding in the future. Pretty smart, imo.
Seriously, this president is simply costing the country too much money, we should ask him to resign, now. He has no concept of listening to real experts, period. It’s like he’s in a dream world where everyone tells him what he wants, or he throws a tantrum and gets them fired, at best, and endangers their life at bad, or sends them into battle at worst. Meanwhile, our economy is shit, gas has never been more expensive, the ecology is violently attacking us because of us, and he makes these empty promises.
We don’t need talk, we need action. This man has no action for the common good. All his actions are calculations for increasing power for only himself and his cronies. Ask him to resign now. He’s irresponsible, and has his priorities in all the wrong places for our community.
