I accept his reason for this one.

People like Olbermann would have had a field day ripping him apart for
causing local police and resources to be distracted from more immediate
and
important jobs. (not that the local, corrupt police were doing their
jobs
... my comment, not Bush's)

It's a lame excuse. The President of the United States should make a
showing when one of our cities is nearly wiped off the map.

Convenient excuse that's inexusable.


Actually he should stay home and monitor the situation. Bringing in the
President and all the security required, just messes up things. About like
the traffic when the President comes to town. Freeways shutdown for short
times, streets blocked.


Eisboch made your point earlier. It's a lame excuse that allowed him
to remain at arm's length from a national crisis. One of our cities
was nearly wiped off the map. I'm not suggesting he go there for the
cameras but that he go there and survey the situation and talk to
people himself so that he could measure a proper response. Presidents
and Governors do this all the time. It wasn't worth his time.

Whatever wake he, his security and entourage would create would be
less than a pin drop in the hell that was New Orleans.

He later remarked about how he felt sad that the location of youthful
follies had succumbed to mother nature.

That was his point of reference.

You still claiming to be a Democrat or have you finally come out?

And you think the response to Katrina was appropriate? Want to blame
the mayor and the governor for "not askin" for help? What a crock of
****. Poor people and colored ain't **** to Bush or Cheney or half of
the Republican party. They don't care and you know it.



Your arguments would be much more credible if you had your facts straight.
That is not what happened. The governor was pleaded with to make the
official
request for federal assistance as required by law. Bush personally insisted
that the request
be made and even authorized the initial logistical preparations in
anticipation of the request before the governor finally conceded. If he had
acted unilaterally, many would be all over his case for ignoring the law
with regard to the use of federal resources and troops, being politically
motivated and illegally interfering with local (state) authority, and
properly so.

I don't understand the reluctance or delay on the governor's part, other
than pure politics, ego and stupidity. Many mistakes were made, FEMA and
it's director screwed up for sure, but the allegation that Bush was "slow"
in authorizing federal assistance just isn't the case.

The next argument becomes, "Well, it's been known for years that NO would be
wiped out in a major hurricane. Bush should have known that and have
initiated plans years before.

Give me a break. Is the POTUS also supposed to anticipate every major
natural catastrophe, be it a hurricane, tornado, earthquake, snowstorm or
flood? I really don't think that's his job. If you feel Bush is to blame
for the effects of Katrina, then you also have to share that blame on every
president going back to the Louisiana Purchase.

I am not suggesting that Bush and Co. have done a great job, but it irks me
when stories are fabricated, twisted and blown out of proportion. Another
good example is the famous "Mission Accomplished" banner which to many has
come to symbolize Bush's screw-ups and dishonesty.

With knowledge that Bush was going to come aboard for a photo op visit, a
request was made to him by the task force commander to fly the banner on the
carrier before arriving home signifying the completion of the carrier's (and
task force's) scheduled deployment of about 6 months. It's a naval
tradition, much like strapping a broom upside down on the mast signifies a
"clean sweep" of a ships mission or deployment purpose. It's symbolism is
unique to the ship's specific and current mission, not a war.

Bush's mistake was thinking of the crews of the ships of the task force and
not anticipating the mistaken interpretation of the banner by the media and
uninformed public.

Although it has been explained many times, the image has stuck that the
banner represented the end of the overall mission in Iraq, not simply the
end of the deployment or mission of the USS Lincoln and her task force.
Many who absolutely detest Bush just won't hear it any other way and much of
the media won't let it go or correct the misinterpretation. This form of
dishonesty is just as bad as the "lies" and fact twisting reported to
originate with Bush and his administration, so who is clean?

BTW .... if you are interested, there's also another side of the story
regarding the modified RV's and trailers bought and delivered by FEMA as
temporary shelters, but I won't get into that now.

Again, I am not a big admirer of Bush and his administration. In many ways
he was a disaster as POTUS. But some of the allegations made of him and
that continue to be perpetuated simply are not true.

There's an interesting dilemma facing Obama when he takes office.
Here's his problem:

"I do solemnly swear (or affirm) that I will faithfully execute the office
of President of the United States, and will to the best of my ability,

If Bush and/or Cheney are guilty (as many have alleged including some in

He's been pressured for an answer as to his intentions in this regard and
has been evasive in his answers. He speaks of "looking forward" not
backward or passes the buck off to his future attorney general in an obtuse,
cloudy statement. Right.

Anyone care to make a wager as to whether he will actually try to go after
Bush/Cheney?

If he doesn't, isn't he guilty himself?

It opens the door to each incoming President investigating and charging
the previous President for high crimes and misdemeanors while in office.
There is already a Constitutional process for handling that situation.
It is not the job of the incoming President to sit in judgment of his
predecessor, for he has already been given the rudder of the nation by
the people and is expected to steer the nation on its new course.

If the Congress determines that high crimes and misdemeanors have been
committed by the sitting president then the House has the duty to
impeach the president and the Senate will determine if the president
shall be removed from office.

Once Obama takes the oath of office he and his administration need to
concentrate on taking the nation forward and not be a individual or
collective vindictive prick.

is about to take.

This is not my legal opinion. I am not qualified. It's the legal opinion
of several qualified legal scholars.

He's been pressured for an answer as to his intentions in this regard and
has been evasive in his answers. He speaks of "looking forward" not
backward or passes the buck off to his future attorney general in an obtuse,
cloudy statement. Right.

Anyone care to make a wager as to whether he will actually try to go after
Bush/Cheney?

If he doesn't, isn't he guilty himself?


Careful - you might have to make them think a little.

They might get an answer they don't like.

And as usual, they won't blame anybody but Bush.

Let's see whether Bush grants Libby a full pardon before leaving

Cheney's latest statements would have you believe that Gitmo should

He is a former Marine, like many others here.

http://www.montney.com/marine/once.htm

Once a Marine - Always a Marine

Being a Marine is a state of mind. It is an experience some have likened
more to a calling than a profession. Being a Marine is not a job – not a
paycheck; it is not an occupational specialty. It is not male or female,
majority or minority; nor is it a rank insignia. Stars, bars, or
chevrons are only indicators of the responsibility or authority we hold
at a given time. Rather, being a Marine comes from the eagle, globe, and
anchor that is tattooed on the soul of every one of us who wears the
Marine Corps uniform. It is a searing mark in our innermost being which
comes after the rite of passage through boot camp or Officer Candidates
School when a young man or woman is allowed for the first time to say,
“I’m a United States Marine.” And unlike physical or psychological
scars, which, over time, tend to heal and fade in intensity, the eagle,
globe, and anchor only grow more defined – more intense – the longer you
are a Marine. "Once a Marine, always a Marine."

I don't know why they wouldn't be proud to serve their country, as
anyone would. However, they don't necessarily think they're doing
what's right for our country. While soldiering, they don't question
the orders but they do question why the hell they're there in the
first place.

My nephew is an army airborne medic. He's about to be deployed for
the 3rd time, this time to Afghanistan. I hear it from the inside.

Our support of the troops is abysmal apart from rah rah and stickers
on our cars. They've been used and abused and deserve better.

Ripping families apart and stop lossing people who've given more than
their measure isn't something to be proud of.

Deducting money for meals while in the hospital is an insult. Army
hospitals in disrepair with mold and **** growing in the same
facilities where our countrymen are healing is an embarassment.

Both my Brother and Sister in law have been deployed, I hear it from

important issues, he wants to abolish the "don't ask, don't tell" in
the first week of his administration and isn't taking the troops out
after all. We will see if he does anything of any signifigance in
relation to the facilities.. BTW, the facilities did not fall apart in
one administration... Either way, I think I have wasted enough time
with you, like the others here already figured out.. you are not an
honest man, asking about my honor, pfffffttt...
