bush and situational awareness (Katrina)
Advertisements [?]
bush lied this week on ABC News when he said there was a communications problem on the ground in New Orleans after the hurricane limiting situational awareness.

I was 50 miles northeast of New Orleans, no electricity, no water, no nothing, sipping ambient beer in my garage and trying to get over the shock of having a hurricane up my ass for about 24 hours, watching trees topple over and god knows what being blown away; and doing my best to comfort my wife and her crying episodes. However, during that time in the garage I had a battery operated radio and I knew precisely what was going in New Orleans. Surely to God the president of the United States had better communications facilities available to him than me.

My hate for bush is extremely rationale.
