Bush's response to Katrina: Relax air pollution rules.
That wimpy little trust fund fuck couldn't even get out his plane back from his vacation to see the victims first hand.

It's too much to expect this twirp to have been on the ground in New Orleans as the last freely elected President of the United States, Bill Clinton, would have done

But he did have time to increase the sulfur pollution from gasoline refinery operations.

When he is swept out of office, and assessment of his crimes is made, one hopes he will rot in some sweltering moldy prison somewhere.

Crazy, but unfortunately true.

5. Bush did the same during California's Energy Crisis.
Bush told Governor Davis that he would waive and lift the pollution controls to help California with its energy Crisis. Davis told Bush "No Thank You" the pollution laws were having NO EFFECT ON THE AMOUNT OF ENERGY BEING PRODUCED. Furthermore any causal observer could have seen that.

The right likes to talk about "Knew-Jerk Liberals" but Bush is a "Knew Jerk Conservative" he first response to ANYTHING is to lift pollution controls. I am surprised he did not offered to do so after 9/11 (Which he did so by telling the EPA NOT to publish the pollution caused by 9/11).
