Thanks for at least admitting Bush was an epic fail. The first of the 12 steps is admitting the problem.

Let me correct you.
Confirmed deaths attributed to Katrina is NOT 4,000 it was 1,800. Nice try!
Of those 1,800, 1,500 were people who were ordered to leave and did not. And this count is not just in La but also included the Bahamas, Cuba etc.
President Bush went on national TV 5 days before Katrina hit and told people to leave.
Your liberal Mayor and your liberal Governor caused these deaths because unlike the oil spill this disaster is controlled by the state first and federal second.
Your liberal Mayor should be in jail for not following written and documented procedures. He wanted to be a hero and failed.
Bush had national guard outside of La waiting for the word from your liberal Governor to allow them to come in and they did not get the call until it was too late.
Stop making up stuff like this. The fact is the people died for two reasons.
They did not follow ORDERS and your liberal Mayor wanted to be a hero and caused the death of these people for not doing his job.
Look up the federal law that prohibits federal officials to get involved in any a state matter until after the feds get the call for help from the Governor.
Perfect example, Jeb Bush did this correct and saved the lives of thousands of people in Florida.
Another? Arnold followed the procedure in place several times during the wild fires and saved thousands of lives and homes because he did not want to be a hero like Nagan did.
To make it clear.
Katrina was a state controlled disaster and laws prohibit feds from taking control until those procedures are in place. Your liberal Mayor and Governor failed to follow the correct procedures and cost those people their lives.
This oil spill is in a FEDERAL CONTROLLED area. HUGE difference and this disaster may not cost this many lives but it will cost us a beautiful coastline, many peoples livelihood and will cost us all tons of money in the end because of the failures of this FEDERAL government and this ADMINISTRATION to wait for 47 days to finally do something.
Lives are NOT the only thing in a disaster to be counted. This oil spill will cost Americans homes, jobs and much more because of the daily mistakes and poor decision making skills of the idiot in the WH who had TOTAL CONTROL of this from day one he said.
Again, FEDERAL means FEDERAL control.
Do not confuse the two and make you look up the act that prohibits the feds from coming in during a disaster until the Governor of the state follow proper procedures inwhich your liberal Governor in La failed.
Funny, Alabama, Mississippi and Florida all had hurricanes and they followed the procedures to get help. And they were of course republicans who did not want to be a hero like the criminal Nagan did.
READ the following act.

You will find that natural disasters in on-shore states are governed by that state and not by the federal government.
