The following article shows just how quickly we accepting all the generous aid from other countries. I am once again sickened. Help didn't arrive til Bush arrived in New Orleans. Maybe he will accept these offers when it makes him look best

this is the one that bothers me the most...

also, this quote from the 2nd article you posted " The criticism is all the sharper because the President did nothing to alter his holiday schedule for 48 hours. Vice-President Dick Cheney remains on holiday in Wyoming. Condoleezza Rice, the Secretary of State, returned to Washington after being seen shopping for $7,000 shoes in Manhattan as New Orleans went under."

It just makes me sick...

"Funding for flood prevention was slashed by 80 per cent, work on strengthening levees to protect the city was stopped for the first time in 37 years..."

Oh come on. If the president isn't going to stop reading a book to children when planes crash into the WTC, why is he going to cut his vacation short for a little rain.

As for Rice, you know that every one of those pairs of shoes is ugly. When is that woman going to be granted honorary WASP status?

Thanks for posting that. I was wondering what the list of refusals was at this point.

Strange how the help that was previous turned down early in the week is now being welcomed....a little too late for so many people!
