Tape: Bush, Chertoff Warned Before Katrina
It's on tape, folks. By MARGARET EBRAHIM and JOHN SOLOMON, Associated Press Writers WASHINGTON - In dramatic and sometimes agonizing terms, federal disaster officials warned President Bush and his homeland security chief before Hurricane Katrina struck that the storm could breach levees, put lives at risk in New Orleans' Superdome and overwhelm rescuers, according to confidential video footage. Bush didn't ask a single question during the final briefing before Katrina struck on Aug. 29, but he assured soon-to-be-battered state officials: "We are fully prepared." .... Bush declared four days after the storm, "I don't think anybody anticipated the breach of the levees" that gushed deadly flood waters into New Orleans. But the transcripts and video show there was plenty of talk about that possibility — and Bush was worried too. BTW, Michael "Good Job" Brown comes off pretty good in the tape. It appears that he was the fall guy. -- Cut "to the chase" for my email address. |

Have you checked out alt.politics? In case that's not enough evidence of incompetence for you, Dave, there's this: Cong. King says Bush admin. did NOT investigate UAE company's ties to Al Qaeda In an interview at the start of the "Situation Room" with CNN's Ed Henry, Congressman Peter King, who chairs the House Homeland Security Committee, said that the Bush administration did not investigate whether the UAE company had ties to terror. King said there was "no investigation into terror whatsovever." According to Henry, King maintained that he had asked officials at Treasury and Homeland Security whether they had checked out whether the company had ties to Al Qaeda. The response was to King was "You don't understand. We don't conduct a thorough investigation." King is a Republican. This is insane. This is total meltdown. Bush's approval rating will be in the low single digits before he leaves office. The only people who will support him will be those who wouldn't mind if he ate their children. -- Cut "to the chase" for my email address. |

RW, you are preaching to the choir.
There are four convservatives on roff. Everyone else, I believe, is a liberal like yourself. Your posts aren't going to change anything, nor do they have an answer to anything. In short, you ain't impressing anyone. This is a fishing forum, not one for cry baby juveniles with aggendas. |

![]() Today the bush administration announced it was drastically cutting back the Nasa budget, so what little money is left can be funnelled exclusively toward 'manned space flight.' That's exactly the opposite of what should be done. Manned space flight is a useless publicity stunt. What they are now cutting from Nasa are the programs that have actually been useful. |
