Obama- NO not a priority?

[Tom]

Bush got criticized for flying over NO to survey the damage (the best way to do it) then got criticized for showing up and getting in their way, then McCain, for what I forget, now Ding Harry the snake criticized Romney for going there because he would leave them all high and dry ( ins't htat a good thing?).

But where has Obama been? Not going there until Monday....what, he's hoping to get a few hot dogs while he poses for photo ops? (Warning NO, when he says he would love a couple of dogs, just remember, he is not like us!

Differences between Katrina and Isaac.
Katrina was a category three with sustained winds of 130MPH
Isaac was a category one with sustained winds of 80MPH.

Katrina had a storm surge of 15 to 20 feet.
Isaac had a storm surge of 8 to 12 feet.

Bush paid little or no attention to Katrina before it hit
Obama was up to date on the movements of Isaac.

During Katrina FEMA was headed by a guy who showed Arabian horses.
During Isaac FEMA was headed by a guy with extensive experience in disaster management.

Katrina made landfall on the morning of August 29. Bush waited until Sept. 2 to tour the area even though the damage from Katrina was the worst in US history.
Isaac made landfall late in the day on August 28. Obama will tour on Swept. 3.

Bush diverted Coast Guard helicopters, and personnel for a photo op and much needed relief supplies were delayed due to Bush's flight over the area.

Obama is not likely to do any of that.

Agreed.
Bush handled Katrina poorly.

Obama handled the Gulf Oil leak dismally as well.

[Tom]

mostie lies again.

If his biased brain would look it up, he would see more warnings for Bush to evacuate up to 48 - 72 hours BEFORE it hit than "School-bus Ray Nagin", who FAILED miserably as the authority on the scene, to get anything of substance done.

Besides that, if you live in a hole behind a wall to keep the ocean out, and a hurricane is bearing down of your, what kind of a moron are you to NOT get the hell out????? Maybe Bush was busy wiping liberal butts for them somewhere else.

Mstie left out the real difference

Bush was a repub

He was when he invaded Iraq and cut taxes. As both became disasters, he was disavowed rather quickly as a Faux rethug by "real" conservatives.

Sort of like Mittens becoming a Faux conservative but in reverse

[Tom]

At least he was never a democrat.
hcap again ignores the point of the thread.
Obama continue to embarrass the left.

[hcap]

Just wait for the stellar embarrassment Romney will display when Obama asks him during the debates, how come he advocated and enacted a government state wide health care system when governor but now pretending to be a reborn "real" conservative is against Obabamacare which used the same policies and planners as Romneycare.

Barack Hussein Obama will be running from the fact that he DID NOT BUILD our country up during his first term in office. Just the facts in a debate will be a killer for the Kenyan that will need a chair after the debate. Do you think America loves a liar Hcap? In a month or two it will be amusing watching members from his own party running away from him, watch the rats run!

State versus federal comes to mind. I am sure his reply will include some of that

So does that mean government health care as set up by both Romney and Obama are worthwhile but should require a vote by each state for acceptance?

I am saying the states should make their own decisions. Federal mandates don't fit every state.

Only an idiot would not see the difference.
I hope that question gets asked....really hope.
The impact of exposing Obama's complete failure to understand how governments work will be priceless.
Debates turns into civic Lesson.
Or, as the NY Post might say,

POTUS takes NOTUS.
Romney gives homework to Prez

[Tom]

And back on topic, why no major news coverage of the disaster in NO - there is flooding, power outages, rescues.....some people are being hit just as hard as Katrina. But silence from the OBamedia. No middle east body counts, and no disaster coverage. One might think the news was being scrubbed, mighten one?
