Harry Reid fans should be encouraged by this news - It proves the stroke has had no effect on his reasoning skills.
(To Senator Reid: That's NOT a compliment.)
Actually they are third. City or County, State then Feds
'The sky is falling and you know whose fault it is. Only a dem admin. is fit to handle this country's problems. Elect Hill at once.' This is the message we'll hear for the next three years. Nonstop.
Yes, they were, and yes, they are (idiots). Guess idiots like Senator Reid think that the President of the United States hangs a "do not disturb" sign on his door while on vacation, and unplugs his phone. If I could speak to Reid, I'd say, "here's your sign". Stupid stupid stupid.
Just keep it up Harry, and watch your party sink further into irrelevance. The fact is, the majority of Americans don't think anybody in your party would have done any better.
The President on vacation is still working harder than most of the population, even on the weekends. It's 24/7/365, regardless of where he is.
Harry read the polling numbers from their sympathetic polling units? Or did he just get the internal polls that are far more accurate then media polls? My guess is both.
See, the MSM polls are supposed to create a certain image favorable to Dem. the internal polls are to assess reality.
The MSM polls have failed them despite, I'm sure, their best efforts. The Internal polls are giving them even worst news.
So now the Dems already bloodied, are jumping off the cliff again.
Investigate his vacation Harry? Why? So the American people can learn just how much harder he works on vacation then even in D.C.? Yeah, that'll do you guys a world of good.
Moron. I demand psych tests before they can play Senators. We clearly have people better suited to the mental wards than Capitol Hill.
Yes! And Rush is doing yeoman's work. When he mentioned Dingy Harry's press release, oops! letter, he saw it as a sign that the Dems are really getting demented since that poll showed only 13% blame Bush. Back to the old drawing-and-quartering board, I guess.
Well last night, O'Bloviator suggested that President Bush should have just MOVED IN and taken over Louisiana, because everybody could see that Blanko and Nagin were nitwits.
There are plenty of nitwits, O'. How far shall we go with this, eh?
Gee, I'm not sure -- Reid's such a common name. Maybe you could e-mail him and ask him. :-) (Or e-mail Rush!)
How come not one Democrat shortened their vacations to come to New Orleans and urge evacuations - before Katrina hit ??
How come Bill and Hillary didn't shorten their luxury Kaua'i vacation ( where Clinton golfed with the Bush hating Pierce Brosnan ),
to come to New Orleans and go through the city urging everyone to evacuate ?
How come Bill and Hillary didn't make radio and tv PSA's urging everyone to evacuate ?
How come Al Sharpton didn't leave the arms of Cindy Sheehan and come 6 hours east-well it's probably shorter when you're going 110mph and grab his beloved bullhorn and go through the projects urging everyone to leave ?
How come Jesse Jackson didn't interrupt his Death to America tour with Hugo Chavez and do likewise ?
How come every member of the Congressional Black Caucus didn't go to New Orleans to urge evacuation ?
When Ted Kennedy gave the Democrat's response to President Bush's Saturday radio address- why didn't he urge evacuation ??
On Saturday, August 27 only President Bush and the Weather Channel urged evacuation.
Not one word from any Democrat-most of whom were elswhere- either on vacation or undermining America.
O'Reilly said (more than once) that the breach of the levee constituted a national security issue, giving Bush the right to act directly. Floored me.
Yes, and then the Prez would be impeached. How does the Senior nitwit over at FOX think impeachment proceedings of a competant President would aid the nation?
O'Reilly's just realized that taking the line the incompetant nitwits of NO and LA aren't at fault, that they aren't going to get a pass, that he scewed up AGAIN, by choosing to join the MSM instead of staying by the President's side, so he's desperately bailing water for a way to put this on the President's head.
He's no better than Chris Matthews, he only has the luxury of a wider audience because he's on FOX with the best timeslot.
When the heck is Texas going to phone service????
Harry, the President doesn't actually take a vacation. He's working the whole time. He justs moves the White House to Texas for a few weeks to get away from a##holes like you.
The main responsibility and authority for operational aspects of evacuation in Orleans Parish lies with the Office of Emergency Preparedness (OEP) within the Chief Administrative Office of the City. The authority to make the final decisions related to an evacuation rests with the Mayor of New Orleans. Evacuation decisions are made in coordination with OEP staff, other City directors, and members of the Southeast Louisiana Hurricane Task Force, made up of top elected officials in all the Southeast Parishes and municipalities and the Louisiana Department of Transportation and Development (LaDOTD). The private and public economic costs of closing an entire geographic [Page 144] area for several days are significant, so the decision to evacuate has to be carefully considered, based on the severity of the storm, the likely storm path, and the time required to prepare and move citizens away from the city. Evacuation decisions and status updates are broadcast on the City's cable access channel and communicated to all media.
No, the wind gust from W's leaf blower is what caused Katrina to veer east at the last minute and hit Mississippi instead of hitting New Orleans head on. Who knows how much worse the devastation would have been, but does anyone thank Bush? No!
LOL
