18. I am so overwhelmed by the tragedy ...
...even more overwhelmed by FEMA, the CHIMP's and the rest of the federal governments response. No entity in this country has an ADEQUATE plan for a large scale disaster.

Slurry, even slower witted than usual ... said nothing except that the response has been unnacceptable thus far (remind me, who's in charge)

12. They expect Bush to give them a conservative supreme cout
And are going to back him until he does. That's my theory on Bush's core. Militant right wing christians and a handful of foreign military adventure seekers.

5. already changed

23% -- As good as could be expected
12% -- Patchy
64% -- Too little, too slow

They really should have a "so bad I can't stop weeping" option.

9. Done....biting sarcasm in that top choice?
"As good as could be expected....from a horses at frat boy wanna be spoiled man-child?" Just saying...this is NOT a right slanted poll. It is the poll of a news team tired of the BS they themselves have seen.

10. I noticed that "abysmal" wasn't one of the selections.
Honestly, if this had happened in, oh say, Palm Beach or one of the tonier, white rich areas, there would have been five feds for every citizen. It further goes to show you put an idiot in the White House, that's what you get. An idiot in the White House. Maybe while bushco* is looking for the adequate response to this national tragedy, they can also find the WMD. Hey, two-for-one!
