You really need to make up your mind. Was Bush relevant, or not? Oh, and while you're at it, can you show me where the President has the authority to bypass local government and evacuate a city?Irrelevant. NOLA was Nagin's responsibility. He let his citizens down.And here was Bush's 'job' while Americans were drowning, dying from heat exposure and dehydration...
I guess the apple doesn't fall far from the tree...
Mother-of-the-president Barbara Bush during a visit to the Hurricane Katrina refugee shelter in the Houston Astrodome:
"What I'm hearing, which is sort of scary, is they all want to stay in Texas. Everyone is so overwhelmed by the hospitality. And so many of the people in the arena here, you know, were underprivileged anyway, so this is working very well for them."
And fools like you let him get away with it.
Yes, Bush was irrelevant. The lives of the American people were not his 'burden'...he had more important things to do.
OR -- you could just admit Bush had nothing to do with Nagin's failure.
Of course, you will refuse to do either.
