So, are you saying there's nothing wrong with George Bush taking the first 4 days of the hurricane aftermath on vacation?


Um, just for the record, Bush didn't stay on vacation for 4 days after the storm:

http://www.cnn.com/2005/POLITICS/08/31/bush.katrina/
^ In this article on Wednesday, Bush flew over the region on his way back to DC (this is about 48 hours after the storm which was on Monday)

He didn't visit the region until Friday but considering he's not doing any search-and-rescue, I don't see what that changes. This is a classic example of you exaggerating and stretching the truth to make things sound worse than they are.

Speaking of which, it was reported in several places that Bill Frist, the Senate Majority Leader, was lending his skills as a doctor to give medical attention to people at the airport. I don't care which party he aligns with, just the fact that a politician got down and dirty is just awesome. If there are any others that I don't know about, I'd love to hear it.


I'm the bawss.
