holly ****!!! bush is taking reposability for some thing!!!

Bush Takes Responsibility for Blunders from yahoo news.

WASHINGTON - &nsbp; &nsbp; President Bush for the first time took responsibility Tuesday for federal government mistakes in dealing with Hurricane Katrina and suggested the calamity raised broader questions about the government's ability to handle both natural disasters and terror attacks.

"Katrina exposed serious problems in our response capability at all levels of government," Bush said at a joint White House news conference with Iraqi President Jalal Talabani.

"And to the extent that the federal government didn't fully do its job right, I take responsibility. I want to know what went right and what went wrong," said Bush.

Facing sharp criticism and the lowest approval ratings of his presidency, Bush scheduled a speech to the nation from Louisiana for Thursday evening. It will be his fourth trip to the devastated Gulf Coast since the storm struck two weeks ago.

It was the closest Bush has come to publicly faulting any federal officials involved in the hurricane response, which has been widely criticized as disjointed and slow. Some federal officials have sought to blame state and local officials for being unprepared to cope with the disaster.

Holy **** this has nothing to do with helping any of the Katrina victims and just makes people who support bush angry, especially when nothing about Katrina is possibly his fault, cept for maybe hiring that idiot FEMA guy.

Consolidation of government agencies and departments is not good because our country is big and has a population of 300 million.

I must mention that this (the disaster cleanup) is what happens when we cut funds. We pay taxes to Uncle Sam for good things like education, relief efforts, and many other things, yet our elected leaders cut funding and waste their time on payraises, pork projects (as in rainforests in Iowa BUT not bringing in money into West Virginia via Senator Byrd to fix roads), and all kinds of BS! It seems that this BS has caused more death and destruction than what we could possibly imagine. Near Pittsburgh, we had this BS when Hurricane Ivan flooded many people out, and people are SOL even to this day!

And thank you, ewm90, for mentioning the logic concerning the hurricane and the administration.

Of COURSE if you keep these 2 clearly alike entities seperate, we are going to pay more taxes, you yourself ewm went on and bitched about our deficit and wondered why the president didn't find more ways to fix the problem. That is quite hipicritical of you ewm.

Large governments = Taking longer to function, more people employed, less money for other things.

Hence, the only thing you can really blame any of this on is the weather, and maybe the Army corp of engineers for not reinforcing those levees later on.

Maybe if there were more programs, there wouldn't be so much mayhem. And another thing: if legislators are willing to give themselves pay raises when allowed by Constitutional law, we, therefore, have the means to afford these programs WITHOUT raising one cent of tax money. It is possible to afford what we have now, but the real problem is the politicians. There's a clear line between politician and public servant, and we have more politicians than public servants. I'm fully aware of the accusations that have been made (lack of action, racism, partisan politics, etc.), and any lie can have some truth in it.

This really has nothing to do with programs, what is needed and what has been delivered is helicopters, personel to do ground searches, MREs, fresh water, and transportation to refugee camps. Relocating an entire city in 2 weeks is not an easy task and I think our armed forces has done superbly considering everything thats happened.

Don't you think I know that? It's a given. What I was trying to emphasize was the issue of keeping programs like FEMA.
