Well, it's official. He won't be going, and neither will Cheney. But they will send Laura. I guess "their" prayers were answered. ;)

He's not gonna head to the Padre Islands and scream "bring it on"?

What a joke.. yeah.. he's gonna monitor Gustav. :rolleyes:

I think they know he would hurt McSh tstains chances more than help it and told him to stay away. War criminals make bad endorsers.

I have to agree with wez on this one, boys and girls.

I digress. Despite his many inequities, he's not a war criminal, wez. Not my favorite president, but I will stand up for that sort of accusation.

We still have a judicial system in this country and neither have been brought up on charges of being a "war criminal".

If I am anything, by proxy, I am a veteran. An entrepreneur. A real estate broker. A grease monkey. A killer. A lunger. A couch potato. A . A wetback. A Jew. A Baptist. A person who missed a spot shaving. The list goes on and on...

That's like the wolf watching the hen house.. wolf aint gonna arrest himself.

and the hurricane gave him an excuse.
Is it that transparent. :rolleyes: If Bush were to go it would've been as brief as possible. And a **** shame seeings how the majority of the people believed the way he did for almost two terms.

His appearance would have been about as extensive as Jimmy Carter's was at the DNC. They wanted to limit the attention on his failed administration, just like the RNC would want to do with Bush's.

McSh tstains
wow, aren't you mature an creative...

Bush got his **** ripped apart during Katrina for "not moving fast enough, and now that he is being proactive about it he is "just using it as an excuse." The guy is damned if he does, and he's damned if he doesn't.

Because you know, Bush like totally made katrina hit New Orleans and he like totally made the completely corrupt Democratically controlled governments not have an evacuation plan for the citizens of a city below sea level when there was more than five days notice that a huge hurricane was coming to destroy the city. But it was Bush's fault.

I will however blame Bush for giving one red cent of my tax dollars to rebuild in the same **** place that was flooded with the last storm.

I'm glad that the people of New Orleans re-elected the same corrupt Dem mayor and city council that caused the last problem. The only fortunate choice they made this time, after not electing him before Katrina, was electing Republican Governor Bobby Jindal, who by the way initiated the idea of evacuating New Orleans this time, and getting rid of Dem governor Kathleen Blanco, who did nothing during, before or after Katrina but point her corrupt, liberal finger at Bush.

It always takes a body count.. Alway! Nobody wants to spend the extra dime until it's too late and then those same exact people are the ones that point the finger.

I believe the head of FEAMA was already fired for his inept attempt even though he probably lobbied for more funds ever since in office. Yeah you got your escape goat but people still wanted more blood so they went for the jugular of Bush... Fine:rolleyes:

I guess some of that was on Bush. He appointed Michael Brown to head FIMA even though he had limited local experience with emergency management.

I still claim the majority of the fault was on local and state officials. They didn't evacuate and Bush had even pledged support days in advance back then like he is now, the local and state officials didn't do their job pre-landfall of Katrina, which would have done more to help than the FEMA/Bush caused problems after. If the locals were proactive like they should have been with several days notice, the human problems after would have been small.
