    Bush-bashing? Nope, just a review of the PUBLIC RECORD. When disaster of biblical porportions happend, America needed its Leader to act, the pin head in charge did what?

    I believe that there has never been a documented case in which a natural disaster benefited its victims. FEMA, when allowed to, has had several instances in which victims of natural disasters were benefited. It sounds like help happened slowly, but the help did occur.

    it sounds like you may have an idea for FEMA to be able to help folks out faster?

    Bush Jr. bashing? Where is this pin head your talking about? Is he supporting the current Republican Presidential candidate? Nope, the last public apperance he made to my underdstanding was to help open a grocery store in Texas; and with Bush Jr.'s public track record, that store has been probably bulldozed, and the property turned into a toxic dump site, or worse a Stucky's

    Let's all review the PUBLIC FACTS.
    1. A catagory 5 Hurricane smashes through the south east part of the North Amerian continent.
    2. FEMA Dude in Charge waits for reservation at a Baton Rouge resturant.
    3. Army General goes to New Orleans to start the help process.
    4. Army General if FIRED for calming things down and helping American citizens.
    5. Bush Jr. circles around the disater area in a jet, then leaves.
    6. FEMA will not send mobile disaster materials to disaster area, because, get this, it's a flood area.

    To cite references, google it.

    I got a sudden chill when I thought if someone like Bush jr. where president was/wasn't making decisions. Reflecting on the public record of actions taken during the Katrina event; Data Center loss would be a trival challenge. I'm thinking Falling Skys, but without confused aliens walking around tripping over stuff.

    You can have all the skills required, who cares. When your competition is offering 30 cents to the dollar cost; you lose. When the government says it will not intervene on your behalf, you lose. Mathematically speaking, all 3 time losers, are also 2 time losers.

    Actually, that's what has been done in the past. But it's going to take the help from Congress; and currently, I don't see the President getting that, yet.

    Actually, Congress gives Asshole Monkeys, a bad name. I think of the Congress as being stirred by a group of petty Janissaires, desparetly willing to prostrate themselves before a unloving coward, but a rich coward.

    Initially, the troll's post sounded insightful. Given 300 million people, that's a lot of stuff to review. But that ignores how businesses make profit. I guess what turned its possible " +5, Insightful" rating to "-2, confussed troll" rating was the mixing of metaphors, and one should never do that.
