I disagree. And I don't mean to Bash Bush. But you will remember that his greatest moment was standing on that pile of ruble after 9-11. So it might have in fact improved his numbers had he seemed more engaged. But Like I said. Its the polls that show the mood of the country towards his efforts. Maybe he couldn't have changed a thing. It might have given people a little more hope. I mean they went for days on end with no water or food. And then it seemed nobody was acting for days. I loaded a pickup full of generators and crap. And we got turned back. It was a mess.

See what I did there? Cool huh?

Spencer that is just more prove that Mccain is desperate and his mind isn't up to the job.
I watched him give a speech last week and he walked back and forth between a hand railing and the podium. Each time he reached out to hang on and support himself.

Sean Penn.

Not about Brown, who had been a deputy administrator of FEMA before being appointed head of FEAM and was not even the issue in NOLA, it was the LOCAL and STATE government failures.

So again, Bush lands at Mossiant, gets out of his plane, all the Civil Defense, Emergency Management heads, Police and Fire authorities, Mayor, Governor, Sherriffs et al are all there. So then what?

It would have mattered diddly squat had he gone there and as I have said repeatedly, had he done so just for poitical gain as you suggest he would have been nailed to the wall.

This is a phony issue drug up by McCellan's editor to try and spread so dirt from which to enrich himself and McCellan.

What would you say if he hadn't gone to NY after 9-11? He is a figure head. I don't know why that is so hard to grasp. He represents the entire country. So showing up means that the whole country cares. Why do you think he finally did show up? He didn't help then either. He just speechified and left.

Totally different scenario there. It wasn't the entire city of New York, the logistics were different altogether.

I understand it fully.

Which was the last thing on everyones mind.

Later is another story, we are talking about this particular time and place. Later the airport was operating almost as before, roads in and out were open, security was manageable the rescue was over and time to start the planning for recovery.

I have determined that we are going to disagree about this. But his poll numbers dropped then and never came back. Are you saying that his poll numbers I had a better report but here you go.

His poll numbers would have dropped anyway, the press was going to attack him no matter what he did. He choose the more pragmatic course and to not interfer with the ongoing rescue and recovery in a very unsecured location. His not going there made not a twit of difference in the end.

Is he ever responsible for anything? Is it everyone else's fault that he is the lowest rated POTUS in modern history. It can't be just because the press doesn't like him. Or because the left has been whining all of this time. He has to bear some responsibility sometime for something.
