[QUOTE="ok2bclever, post: 48002"] sendagain, gee, I don't know, with all the thousands of now homeless people in the south, probably something different than we will make sure this one rich millionaire's house and property gets rebuilt so he and bush can enjoy sitting on the porch. Just a thought. That is [b]If[/b] he actually said that. [b]If[/b] he said that it is either incredibly stupid or just unwise depending on the context in which it was said. I haven't been able to find any reference to that statement beyond susie mentioning it though. susie, do you have a reference link? Every quote I have seen has been pretty decent and expected other than the pretty dumb sounding one of "if you don't need gas, don't buy it". speed, yes, we SHOULD be criticizing. People, our people are suffering and dying down there far beyond what they should have been. It doesn't take an expert to know that this situation was not handled well. If an invasion force hit our eastern seaboard and we had several days notice that it was going to happen, even a very very good idea of what city would be the breach point and we had knowledgeable studies on the immediate and tragic damage that the city would experience (and we knew this days in advance),do you think it would have taken several days after the day of the attack for our National Guard forces to head that direction?!? Would you say, well I am sure there are reasons and considerations beyond our knowledge as we are not experts so it's ok that I can see some of my family, friends and fellow citizens are suffering and dying there because at least the news managed to get down there in time. This was bungled, pure and simple. tie may actually have a point, but then we certainly need to reassess the bureaucracy of the mechanism if that was a factor. It's still no excuse. Still, the most important point is to fix the problem [b]and learn from it.[/b] [/QUOTE]
