Bush* personally handed out water and ice to Floridians when Frances hit>>
<>

President George W. Bush (right) and his brother Gov. Jeb Bush (left) hand out water and ice to motorists in a drive-thru relief operation set up by the American Red Cross at Longwood Stadium in Fort Pierce, Fla. Sept. 8. About 120 miles north of Miami, the coastal city was hit hard when Hurricane Frances tore through Sept. 5. Thousands are still without power in Florida. Photo by Joni B. Hannigan

HE PERSONALLY HANDED OUT WATER AND ICE TO THE VICTIMS IN FLORIDA 3 DAYS AFTER THE STORM!


BUT HE LEAVES THE POOR PEOPLE OF NOLA, and Mississippi, and Georgia, to WITHER UP AND DIE WHILE HE's on VACATION! MORE PEOPLE WILL DIE BECAUSE OF HIS NEGLIGENCE THAN IN THE STORM ITSELF!!!!

WTF!!!!!!

9. He doesn't care
He's got the power, he's getting richer by the moment, and nobody will kick him out of office.

I'm sure going to keep trying, though...

7. I'm sure tomorrow will be very "hands on" and shirt sleeves up
that's all he has left---oh, and to bother people at the Texas shelters because the dumb governor will give him the keys to the place and tie the evacuees up

8. Tomorrow more tough questions will be asked, and the heat will be
increasing.

Heads are gonna roll as the body count rises.

11. It was just another photo-op.
