I am really disappointed in President Bush.

First and foremost he failed to stop the hurricane Katrina
before it hit the Gulf Coast. Even worse, he should have
stopped it before it first hit Southern Florida. Since he
failed to take this first action, one would have expected
that he should have, as a second thought, moved the entire
states of Alabama, Mississippi and Louisiana to central
Texas before Katrina came ashore.

Next he failed to keep the levees in New Orleans from
breaking. You would think that our Commander in Chief would
have sent Rumsfeld or at least someone in authority to put
his or her finger in the dike. Here again, President Bush
should have known that the levees wouldn't hold. Remember,
he has the best intelligence organization in the world and
they are never wrong.

If that wasn't bad enough, he failed to assemble the
National Guard on a minutes notice. Aren't they, after all,
the present day "Minutemen?"

I know that it took God 6 days to do His work but the leader
of the free world should have been able to beat His time.
(Actually it took 6 days after the hurricane to get things
stabilized so maybe that's par for the course.) Remember,
he had experience when he responded to the tsunami victims.
Didn't it take several weeks of continuing rescue operations
to stabilize that area. With that training, he should have
had everyone sitting in planes with their engines running at
the end of the runways before the hurricane struck. As a
matter of fact he should keep them all at that level all the
time because you can never tell when there might be an
emergency.

Bush also showed his careless disregard for property damage
by concentrating efforts in the flooded areas where people
were trapped. By all rights he should have been primarily
concerned about getting power back on to the casinos along
the Gulf Coast. After all, what is more important, a few
peoples lives or preserving the governments income from
gambling sources.

What blows my mind is how President Bush could have
reasonably expected people to take any responsibility for
themselves. After all, with only a few days notice how
could you expect that anyone would take the time to fill up
a few jugs of water and stash a few cans of food just
because a category 5 hurricane was headed their way?
Besides FEMA's suggestion of having 4 days of water and food
is just a suggestion. It isn't mandatory.

Bush also failed by expecting local officials to take on any
responsibility. After all, isn't it the present Federal
Government's responsibility to provide everyone with
everything that our ancestors use to do for themselves?

Based on all of the above it is clear that President Bush
and his administration are the only possible ones to blame.
This calls for a full investigation by all of those totally
blameless so that they may reap as much political gain from
this tragedy as is possible.
