Right back to where I expect you to be.. Your mean hateful spirited postings of a typical liberal.. "Bush didnt have a clue or care".. thanks for bringing me back to the point that liberals keep up with the nonsense even when faced with facts proving you are wrong.

And Obama has been president for a year.. Can you list what he has done to help those areas devistated by Katrina? Or will you respond with, "Its all Bushs fault" like a good little liberal

I'll correct myself: Bush didn't have a clue that he cared

I will continue to donate for the rebuilding of the area and that is my part. I haven't been following Obama's administration's activities closely, only know he was there for the first time in October 2009.

I'm a Libertarian - but if you want to call me a liberal -
make sure it's a "classical liberal"

I tried to rep you, but you know the rules. I get so tired of hearing it is Bush's fault. Granted he had some faults, his border policy was my biggest gripe, but he will be cold in the grave...just like Reagan and they will still be blaming him.

Fantastic! More road projects. Well I guess they can live under the bridges. In the meantime, a few more representatives can take some trips over to see what they can see.

Thanks for the Info - I'm impressed. We had a home in
Mississippi at the time and were lucky but still moved away. Pass Christian was destroyed.

Since when have we ever needed to be ASKED for assistance before we take action? Do you forget that the US provided assistance to hurricane victims in Haiti in 2004, also during President Bushs term?
How many troops did Bush send top Haiti and was Bush's response to Haiti faster or slower than his response to Katrina?

YOU were the one who mentioned Miami and helicopters, NOW you want to speak of planes?

WHY? I KNOW why, because your first mention of helicopters flying from Miami being a viable option is a load of steaming crap. No points from your lame attempts at diverting attention from your original BS statement.

I thought even you had a shred more sense than to post such a baseless, asinine, factless, silly, ludicrous pile of steaming crap. I was wrong.

Ooh please.. Do you have any valid dispute with the thread, or do you stay up at night losing sleep because someone suggested that support could be delivered by helicopter considering an airport was devistated?

I've seen some pretty pathetic arguments on cd, but never someone bemoan that support would come by way of plane vs helicopter. I'll be sure to send your concerns onto the Haiti people awaiting life savings supplies. I wonder if they will care about such meanial bs as you..

I must have dreamed these up...
Obama has kept us safer than Bush

Hell, I even gave you the name of the thread, you could have done a simple search for it prior to needing me to embarass you claiming it didnt exist..
