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) Eisboch 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? |

"jps" wrote in message ... 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.

Funny, with over 200 seperate investigations into the Bush Administration in the last two years (when they should have been investigating William Jefferson, and taking care of business) there was no impeachment of Bush... hummmmm, wonder if any other president was impeached recently? -------------------------------------------- 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, preserve, protect, and defend the Constitution of the United States." If Bush and/or Cheney are guilty (as many have alleged including some in this NG) of actions that are in violation of the Constitution, then Obama, by virtue of his oath, is obligated to seek indictments against Bush, Cheney or both. To not do so means Obama himself is in violation of the oath he 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? Eisboch |

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. |

Nice 'n clean, legally. Let's see whether Bush grants Libby a full pardon before leaving office. It wouldn't surprise me if he pardoned clueless Cheney too. Cheney's latest statements would have you believe that Gitmo should stay open for torture because it's such a nice, clean facility. Anyone here who comes from a military background should be aghast and sorely disappointed at how this administration has treated veterans and servicemen and women.

To not do so means Obama himself is in violation of the oath he 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? Eisboch And you're citing who, that paragon of virtue Gerald Ford? He didn't just not prosecute Nixon, he pardoned him. What would you think of Obama if he pardoned Bush? Wouldn't that put him in the clear, legally? That's the path the R's would take. Nice 'n clean, legally. Let's see whether Bush grants Libby a full pardon before leaving office. It wouldn't surprise me if he pardoned clueless Cheney too. Cheney's latest statements would have you believe that Gitmo should stay open for torture because it's such a nice, clean facility. Anyone here who comes from a military background should be aghast and sorely disappointed at how this administration has treated veterans and servicemen and women. Lip service and then a thorough screwing is what they got from Bush and the republicans in congress. As a veteran, with a disability, who does use the VA hospital, I can say without reservation that the liberal party line, which you seem unable to get away from, is full of ****. But, that's your style. |

What, you're now saying that because I called him and ex-marine that he didn't serve as a Marine? WTF is the difference between "former" and "ex" asshole. Are you joining the ranks of idiots that abound in rec.boats? 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 have not met one who is not proud to have served, I have some Iraq vets in my family too. I think you need to get out and meet some instead of listening to the likes of Obermann and Jon Stewart.. They are not honest representatives, you really should inform yourselves before you go spewing the party line of bull****.. So far in the last few weeks you have been back you have proven you are really not interested in facts.. Harry loves you, that should tell you something...pffffttt....

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. It's not until the cameras and reporters get there that anything happens. This administration is nothing but lip service for Americans and hand outs to business. Both my Brother and Sister in law have been deployed, I hear it from the inside too.. But don't worry, Obama is going to address all of the 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... |
