I did not allude to Obama's response, which is far better and not yet fully in place. You type fast, think slow.

Bush was still adding troops nine (9) days after Katrina. Admits it was not enough. Other posters besides me are posting the same, but you still deny.

Republicon trait.

Somehow these aid works managed but the larges country in the world with unlimited resources can only provide excuses..

Bush had 100 times as many military personnel by this time than Obama.. but shhh dont tell people..

Lie.

Walmart alone donates $600,000 to Haiti

Obama assistance in Haiti worse than Bushs in LA

Did Sean Penn and John Kerry head down to Haiti?

Clinton Bush team up

Obama says US stands with Haiti, pledges $100M aid; will he apologize for the US while giving the aid

Pat Robertson believes Haiti earthquake is epic revenge

News, Rush Limbaugh: Don't Donate to Haiti Victims.

Is anyone tired of the Haiti media coverage?

and pearls of wisdom like this:

Quote:
Instead of a 7.0 earthquake in Haiti which is a very poor nation in which most people probably wish they could afford anything with tires, couldn't there be a big one in CA that dumps uber-liberal, nanny government proponents into the ocean, never to be seen or heard from again?

You can now spin your response into something other than what you meant, which was that Obama got the job done and Bush didnt. Yes, Bush was still adding troops 9 days later, why wouldnt he? Why wouldnt he send in 100,000 if thats what was needed? Where in the world have I denied that he was still sending more? I judged where he was FIVE days after Katrina.. Its YOU who changed the subject to 9 days later, as if Obama if planning to Bush even 9 days out because he's not..

Um, most of the threads you listed are liberals making attacks against conservatives, or arent even attacks at all. I mean seriously, a link about Sean Penn?

You found a few Republican postings, most of these arent though.. but do you want to look for the politicizing of 911, or Katrina and see how many threads you find to compare? Of course you dont want to do that!!!

Certainly! Last I heard, (and I have been watching more football than not today) is at least 2000 Marines in country on Thursday (at the latest) and what 3500 more by now? And 6500 more by Monday? So, Bush had 100X more in place by now is a LIE. Please say otherwise and we'll both know who's crazy.

Obama has not finished with his orderly, intelligent response.

I also said the troops in N.O. had not got the job done by day 6, 7, 8 or 9. Standing FACT. YOU twist, and it seems I am getting to you now. Need a Kleenex?

Yet another thread that has gone the way of personal attacks, off topic posts and snarky bickering.

This thread is serving no useful purpose so it is closed.
