WHITE HOUSE INVESTIGATES KATRINA RESPONSE — by Steve Nadis

In a 228-page report issued yesterday, the White House admitted that the federal response to Hurricane Katrina was badly “botched” and issued 125 recommendations to prevent a recurrence of the “comedy of errors” that transpired after the storm struck in late August. The most significant recommendation, from a policy standpoint, is worded as follows: “Henceforth, natural disasters shall not occur during the president’s ‘vacation’ time in Crawford, Texas.”

  1. Attention all hurricanes and/or other natural disasters:
    Please make a written note in your calendars. And come back at OUR convenience.

    Nicely put, FW. Let’s bring that measure to a full vote.

  3. Where were all these “help agencies” when Bush was elected? Now THAT would qualify as a disaster!

  4. If somebody yells at me, and I have my fingers in my ears, did they still make a sound?

    The Bush administration is a natural disaster. Has Cheney shot anyone lately? They need to change the subject quickly from the Katrina fiasco and Arabs controlling our ports.

    The president thought his guitar playing the day after the levees broke was gesture of comfort to those stranded on their roofs with no food or water.

    Playing to people stranded on their roofs–now there’s a captive audience… I’m sure they’d like to change the subject, Roses, but what, pray tell, should they change it to? Thanks for the other acute observations, as well. I should step aside & let you pros take over…
