I might not like some things Bush does, but I can't see how he is responsible for this natural disaster.

That's right, Bush is not responsible for the natural disaster. He is however, responsible for making sure that the country is adequately prepared for a natural disaster, not to mention allocating funds and developing programs to mitigate the disastrousness of any potential disaster before it strikes. Contingency plans. Heard of 'em? Good leaders are supposed to have them.

You should cut the man some slack, he is your president.

[censored], this country has done nothing but cut him slack since he swore the oath and took office... as Governor of Texas. It's about time that the country stop cutting him slack, and start pointing out what a miserable failure the man really is, and has been.

What kind of president continues his vacation another two days before surveying the damage from one of the most powerful storms to ever hit the US, and meeting the affected people to offer some words of support?

And it took another day or two to pledge any support at all. This is a guy that has a big plane fly him around at a moments notice. They knew this storm was the biggest storm to hit the US in years. They predicted it was a cat 5 storm. Why the hell wasn't he on standby? It's not like this storm was some sort of surprise -- they tracked the damn thing across the Gulf. Where was he? This is his job, and he sure as hell wasn't doing it.

[censored] that.
