Artful Dodger: Help should have started at a local level...when THAT failed,and we seen imagies on TV of bloated bodies floating around the city,people stuck on the roofs of their houses,all the people stuck in the football stadium,begging for help,for water,for food for a way out,when the local level failed as it did,the Whitehouse SHOULD HAVE stepped in. He finds it very easy to butt his nose into others problems all over the world but when Katrina hit...Bush was....oh yeah!! VACATION! he was on vacation,playing golf,and singing his little country songs and roasting mashmellows...thats what Bush was doing.Was it HIS responsibility and his ALONE to help,nope,but for God's sake,put the marshmellows down,step away from the golf club and ...here's a thought...HELP YOUR COUNTRYMEN OUT! 11.

He asked for the Gov to ask, and she refused. Miss and Ala ask for it before it hit and the Government was ready, try again. 11.

Vikings: OMG...wow! no kidding wow...yeah THAT totally changed my mind on EVERYTHING then....oh,no it didn't...sorry,my bad....Against the law...hmmm,ok....it would be against the law for Bush to step in and help...yeah,because he has always worried about what the people have thought of him. It's not just me that thinks he should have helped more....I'm just the one here saying anything about it....how about sucking it up and just say...ya know what,these people are TRAPPED and need some help....ohhh,noooo,I think I would rather stay on vacation 11.

Vikings: Mmmm If Bush had rolled up with a convoy of stuff and men at the state line and asked the people if they wanted help, or asked the Gov to get and explain to him why he should turn around the convoy on public TV.... .... It's called politics and the appliance of. 12.

(V): There was a history of people from inside Iraq trying to organize help to oust saddam, we were actually all set up for one under Clinton, and he backed out at the last minute, leaving the insiders hung out in the wind! After that it was hard for them to trust any help would be available, and without help, nothing they could do alone. 12.

Czuch:  You mean the uprising that was called for by Bush in 1991 and when it came to actual foreign support was cancelled the Intifada were left to Saddam's *cough* mercy.12.

(V): See if you can find it, I probably remember it wrong, but it seems like it was something either with Clinton, or maybe papa George? 12.

January 2009, 16:36:33) Czuch: It was Papa Bush. After the Kuwait business, those who didn't like Saddam were encouraged to uprise by Papa Bush's admin , but at the time they needed outside help they got none. So Saddam went around and slaughtered them all. http://www.alternet.org/waroniraq/49864/?page=entire 11.

Vikings: I would normally agree - but we see how Bush went into Iraq against many wishes - why not do the same to help his own people? Why would Bush care so much to make the people in Iraq lives better... and not his own people? OK, that was a little bit of sarcasm Katrina was cause by a lot of issues, many plans and actions were made long before Bush was ever involved - and Katrina caused many of those plans and actions to fail and I don't think Bush or his people should be held responsible for the failure - but they are of course held responsible to make it better for next time. So when the next big natural disaster strikes, if Bush & his people did not learn from Katrina to make it better - then that would be where to blame Bush. 11.
