"When the people of New Orleans and Gulf Coast extended their hand for help, help was not there. When people looked up from the rooftops, for too long they saw an empty sky. When the winds blew and the flood waters came, we learned for all of our wealth and our power, something wasn’t right with America. We can talk about what happened for a few days in 2005, and we should. We can talk about levies that couldn’t hold, about a FEMA that seem not just incompetent but paralyzed and powerless, about a president who only saw the people from a window on an airplane instead of down here on the ground, trying to provide comfort and aid. We can talk about a trust that was broken, the promise that our government would be prepared, will protect us, and will respond in a catastrophe." - Obama's criticism of Bush on Hurricane Katrina https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CfmC2UUlLNc |
I assume you are trying and failing to suggest that the situations are in any way comparable? Home is behind, the world ahead. And there are many paths to tread Through shadow to the edge of night, until the stars are all alight |
You are right, it wasn't comparable. 1 president was at least flying over it while the other was just golfing. |

Remember that time that Republicans almost all voted against Hurricane Sandy relief? f*** them. As I was walking up the stairs, I met a man who wasn't there, he wasn't there again today, i wish I wish he'd go away 3DS Friend Code 1203-9256-5903 |

That's number 6, I think? You people are desperate if this is what you're riding on. Music gamers are an underserved population. DDR Lives Matter. "If at first you don't succeed, blame it on your parents" - Wheel of Morality |

Why would I have to admit anything of the sort? Are you under the false impression that the problems people had with the Katrina response dealt with Bush not physically being present?
