It was Senator McCain’s birthday, and the President honored the occasion with a cake….I don’t see a problem with that, and it’s not as if they knew that a devastating hurricane was going to strike or that the levees were going to fail.

I was in Iraq, but I was safe & dry - I must be insensitive as well!

Yes and I hope in Nov there are eating cake again. Republican are still the best choice. Democrats have done enough control the least two years. We all know democrats will take our country in the wrong direction. Get them out of control. Nancy Pelosi and her followers need outing.

They knew the harricane was comeing in was advertised for days before it hit. Bush and McCain were out of touch with the people in this country. All they cared about was the war and taking care of the Iraqi people whom they felt should be liberated, regardless of what the Iraqi people felt.

Hacksaw if you were in Iraq dry and warm that is because Iraq is where all of our money went and the people in lousiana had to suffer and die.

whiteneck in November they will be eating crow!

Hmmm, so according to you, both President Bush & Senator McCain knew that Hurricane Katrina was coming to destroy New Orleans but still chose to stand around on a runway and celebrate McCain’s birthday and be photographed doing so, knowing how bad it would look to see pictures of them smiling together while people were suffering & dying – do you realize just how silly you sound sometimes?

You’re way off base in your “assumptions” about what the Iraqi people felt about Saddam, or us being thee in general – heck, Saddam had survived numerous assassination attempts by the public that you claim liked him so much long before we ever arrived & removed him, and besides, our troops were in Afghanistan and then Iraq long before that hurricane stuck and caused the levees to fail & flood the city, and the reason that I was “dry & warm” is because a desert is a very hot place, especially in August!

Another thing to remember is that Katrina was NOT a direct hit on New Orleans. In fact, direct damage from Katrina was minimal. The storm passed well east of Orleans leaving the NW quadrant, which is the weaker side, to brush New Orleans. This issue was more of a surprise because the worst of it happened after the storm had passed. What isn't mentioned is that the folks of Mississippi, where the storm REALLY hit, recieved worse response from FEMA than New Orleans. It just so happens that the community participation was far better.

Hey Polarbear,

You forgot to mention this fact too: your party's moonbat governor Kathleen Blanko screwed up communications with Bush and the National Guard! While Blanko hunkered away in the barn, she did nothing to help prepare for the storm until it was too late! By the time the storm hit hard on New Orleans, FEMA was stuck with the problems that BLANKO caused in preparing for Katrina. The primary blunder goes to BLANKO for her brainless screw ups in this mess.

What did she do afterwards? She cowered out of running for reelection, knowing that she would get whipped by Bobby Jindal! With Bobby Jindal in charge, Louisiana stayed on top of this hurricane! When the voters in Louisiana vote, they'll remember your donkeys polarbear!
