It is now going on eight month since President Bush has left office. I thank God for the time he was our President and kept us save after the horrible day on September 11, 2001 For this month thread I will post the August photos from 2001 - 2004. The quote of the day will be President Bush’s announcement on the Patients’ Bill Of Rights, which I find very appropriate being what will face us if the democrat’s health care bill passes and becomes law

I know I'm showing my age, but that made me think of the old funny papers cartoons of the Katzenjammer Kids!
It was only after the storm surge of Katrina broke the already decrepit levees in New Orleans, that the MSM jumped all over him. And the all powerful 'racist' charge was leveled against both the President and FEMA, because so many of those affected by the levee breaches happened to be black. I guess all those white and black folks who lost their homes in the four storms in FL in 2004 didn't matter, nor did those who lost their homes and livelihoods on the MS Gulf Coast in Katrina.
The MSM hammered continually about Katrina, and FEMA's supposed inability to handle the situation without acknowledging the media's role in FEMA's hesitance to enter the city, because of the reports of shootings at emergency personnel. Nor did the MSM report the mishandling of the situation by Louisiana and New Orleans officials, because those people happened to be Democrats.
Thanks for the ping and hard work of putting this month’s thread together much appreciated.
You are welcome. I would have finished it last night, but my hand started to hurt from scrolling the mouse
What beautiful rugged countryside
It makes as all feel good.
