Bush caused 4,081 to die? Proof please that the blood is on his hands for every one of these deaths.
Is one death not too many? Basically you're saying that 11 deaths are inconsequential. I bet the families appreciate that.
Never said that. But if you want to say this is as equal in tragedy, you couldn't be more wrong.
Funny because the brother of one of the victims is directly citing Bush's deregulation of oil rigs and all the politicians in bed with oil as the reason for his brother's death.

He wasn't comparing the tragedy specifically. He was talking about the responses and the ensuing PR debacles. Bush didn't caue Katrina and Obama didn't cause this, so there is no comparison to be made there.
The brother of a guy that worked in the oil industry, who is tragically not here to give his perspective, is supposed to be the authority of record?

What's Obama supposed to do? Literally what on earth can be done now after the fact? Some of the top scientists on earth can't figure it out. Why is the president, whom is a lawyer, held to a higher standard?
If anything this is just rightwingers hoping this is Obama's Katrina.

The people who seem to have not suffered any bit from this are blaming Obama. One person who actually has takes the other perspective.
Conservatives are so pathetic. Every problem that pops up during Obama's two terms doesn't automatically parallel to some failure during the two horrific terms of your former village idiot leader.
The oil spill was caused by the previous administration's charter of deregulation where cutting corners to bypass safety regulations was as common as GOP sour grapes. President Obama is doing an excellent job dealing with the problem.

I don't know. What did you expect Bush to do in New Orleans?
For starters, he might want to meet with the CEO of BP - you know, to start his a$$ kicking. Yelling at BP in the media is not going to accomplish anything. Right now, people need to be working together instead of blaming. Sort that out later. In essence, be a leader.

Suffering makes you an authority? Why don't we just take the people who lost loved ones in 9/11 and put them all in the Department of Homeland Security then?

Denial is a conservative trait
