Feds Reject aid from Chicago.

Daley 'shocked' as feds reject aid.

A visibly angry Mayor Daley said the city had offered emergency, medical and technical help to the federal government as early as Sunday to assist people in the areas stricken by Hurricane Katrina, but as of Friday, the only things the feds said they wanted was a single tank truck.

That truck, which the Federal Emergency Management Agency requested to support an Illinois-based medical team, was en route Friday.

"We are ready to provide more help than they have requested. We are just waiting for their call," said Daley, adding that he was "shocked" that no one seemed to want the help.

Meanwhile, U.S. Sen. Barack Obama (D-Ill.) said he would call for congressional hearings into the federal government's preparations and response.

3. What preparations

Bush did not even bother to cut his vacation short until NO was totally destroyed. Once the area was devastated the poor of the city that were stranded and resorting to desperation while they watched the people around them die, Bush finally decided to cut his vacation short by one and half days so that he could hold a press conference in the Rose Garden talking about all the things that he had just decided to do while he was on the plane.

There was no preparation and the response was delayed and small.

If anyone still can't see that Bush is a total waste of space that needs to be removed from office then those people gave away their rights to think a long time ago.

If you are not outraged, you are not paying attention.
