MR.PRESIDENT LOOK LIKE THE VASE MAJORITY OF AMERICA DOESN'T BELIEVE YOU ANY LONGER.
Katrina Aftermath Tests Bush's Leadership Skills
By DEB RIECHMANN, AP
WASHINGTON (Sept. 3) - After the Sept. 11 attacks, the newly elected President Bush needed to be seen as a strong leader. He gripped a bullhorn at Ground Zero in New York and bellowed to rescue workers: "I can hear you! The rest of the world hears you!''
In the wake of Hurricane Katrina, Bush - a two-termer shouldering the lowest approval ratings of his presidency - is struggling to prove he can manage a national disaster that will burden his administration for the rest of his time in the White House.
If Sept. 11 was the defining moment of his presidency, Katrina is again testing his mettle as a crisis manager.
Failing that test will mar his legacy.
"There's no question that it will hurt him and it will hurt him significantly,'' said Norman Ornstein, political analyst at the American Enterprise Institute think tank. "He's still getting the solid support from his base. The question now is whether his performance with the hurricane begins to affect his performance with his base.''
Criticized for being slow to respond to the hurricane, Bush has, in recent days, traveled to the region and stepped up to the microphone repeatedly to convince the nation that his administration is on top of the devastating situation.
Delivering his weekly radio address live from the White House on Saturday, Bush announced he was deploying more than 7,000 additional active-duty troops to the region. He comforted victims and praised relief workers.
How would you characterize Bush's response to Hurricane Katrina?
Poor 77%
Good 9%
Excellent 8%
Fair 6%

Here's how your thread got posted 7 times peepa. When you hit the "post" button you hit it 7 times real fast. Like you were real mad over what you were posting and you wanted get your message across. When all you had to do was calmly hit the button once.
This is how you did it.

Nope I didn't use the enter button. You are right I am very angry that Bush is failing America.
Call me anything you want. The point is the majority of Americans no longer believe Bush is up to his job.
I understand the disappointment Bush voters are feeling. I also had hoped Bush would make a better America for all.
I guess because I have had dealings with so many people through the years I was able to spot Bush's lies and inability to be a leader.
Something I know for sure is I am very glad I didn't vote for Bush. I wouldn't want to live with the pain of my mistaken vote like you Bush voters are living with now.

I thought maybe he was pulling a mingotree and shoving something down our throats here. But, nah, he just submitted his post more than once.

I was going to try to do an intelligent post, but I just went through and read all Classic's responses then got to Pinthesky's and I can't stop laughing.

Well, Bigpeepa, YOU made a mistake like every living human being has done, you're not stupid like pricklane, classic and caroline have just proven by their totally insulting and really brain dead responses. Have they read their OWN POSTS?
How intelligent where they?????!!!!
But we know that since they never do post anything intelligent ...what could you expect. Classic and and pricklane especially have never posted ANYTHING but insults....bottom feeders with the brains of carp
And we know that prickBush cannot be defended in anyway and they just proved that for you
