fermentor666 Posted August 1, 2006 Author Share Posted August 1, 2006 Dailykos photo diary of the Bush response taken directly from their site: SUNDAY, August 28 A region is hit with a massive Cat 4 hurricane.

Especially since it had little to do with the "war on terror". MONDAY, August 29 While an entire region of the United States awakens underwater: Bush says, "Let them eat cake". McCain says, "I'll bring the cake!" (White House picture) TUESDAY, August 30 Tuesday rolls around, and the world watches in horror as the true scope of the disaster becomes apparent: (CBS News) Meanwhile, our very own Nero fiddles plays "pretend country star" while a whole region of his country drowns: (Associated Press) WEDNESDAY, August 31 It has been three days since the hurricane hit, yet people are still stranded without a hint of an organized, competent federal response. Bush finally decides to show up for work, ends his five week vacation two or three days early (to great fanfare from the Bush acolytes), heads back to DC after he "surveys" the disaster zone: FRIDAY, September 2 While people are still in need of rescue: (LA Times) Bush grounds Coast Guard helicopters and pulls servicemembers from duty to stand as backdrops to one of his photo ops: And so on, and so on, and so on... For those who don't want to read, here's a quick summary. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
