[QUOTE="dannyboy, post: 48047"] I guess Bush the elder summed it up the best when he and Clinton were on the news. He said his son has been the recipient of much blame, and stated he had the broad shoulders to take the critisism. That came with the Job. Then of course Bill had to do his cheesy "well we need to put together a commission like the 9-11 commission to investigate" Two things here that come to mind. One, Susie would probably wet her pants if someone the calliber of Bill were at the helm for these disasters. Problem is he would have been in the oval office geting the oval job instead of having kids reading to him. Secondly, there is the issue of states rights. Just like individual rights they are protected by our constitution. The way things are currently run, the state can ask for or refuse federal help. That is up to the governor of that state. It would be just like those people that stayed behind. Many refused to leave, and still many, upwards of more than 10,000, refuse even now. They could get out, but they refuse. IF you refuse to take help when offered, or refuse to ask for help when it is appropriate, how can that be the fault of those offering or able to help. But then again, Susie has her private agenda and is shamefully using the disaster in New ORleans for a soapbox. And of course she IS an very angry woman. To even respond to her off the wall posts only gives her the legitimacy she so desperatly seeks. d [/QUOTE]
