Is this a glaring pattern of incompetence or what?...
September 11th, 2001, the president while in a photo op in a classroom is told that America is under attack. His plan of action to save innocent Americans: Stay with children reading a book.

America watches as hurricane after hurricane after hurricane strikes the country with almost biblical fury.
Bush is on vacation, again...America has been watching Katrina forming and growing to monstrous size and strength yet the President is clueless to the impending danger. Katrina hits and thousands are killed, millions left homeless. Bush is unaware for 3 days that Americans are dying on his watch, again. Vacation takes precedence over dying Americans.

Americans are told the government has been illegally spying on CITIZENS. Bush response...don't praise the whistle blower, investigate him and prosecute him, then change the name of the illegal domestic spying program to the terrorist spying program. Continue breaking the law.

Vice President Cheny shoots a hunting partner seriously injuring him. The white House springs into inaction and remains silent for almost 24-hours hoping the victim is not seriously hurt and the problem will just disappear. Then the ungrateful bastard has a heart-attack. He may die, so the White house has to stop blaming the victim, stop down playing Cheny's reckless endangerment with a firearm and try to make Americans believe they care about the victim.

Who and how many will die next so we can witness this government's obscene pattern of inaction and incompetence?

They blamed their incompetence after 9-11 on CLINTON!

They blamed their obscene lies justifying the illegal invasion of iraq on faulty intelligence. (you got that right, their intelligence is lacking)

They blamed the dead for not getting out of Louisiana instead of the incompetence of the response.
remember: "Brownie (heh heh) you're doin' a heck of a job."
Then when the shit hit the fan, they blamed heck of a job Brownie, not their leaderships incompetence for choosing Brownie.

Cheny shoots a man while hunting and the reich-wing media down-plays the injury comparing this to being shot by a bb gun, then they blame the victim. (what the fuck, did he ASK FOR IT, like the rape victims?)
then the man has a heart attack and the explanation is a bb (still sticking with the Red Ryder defense)
The man was shot on the right side of the face, neck and chest. the heart is on the LEFT, people. How does a bb make it to the heart unless it travels through the chest wall, bypassing the lung to strike the heart? Another way is if a bb actually lodged into a vein being transported to the heart via the blood veins.

It wasn't no fucking bb gun, it was a firearm. You know, guns don't kill people, people kill people type of firearm.

The Vice-President of the united States shot an innocent American and the White House sat on the truth and remained resoundingly silent...

Bush ran in 2000 saying he would bring honesty and integrity to the White House. Sweet Jesus, I'd hate to see his idea of dishonesty is. He couldn't spell integrity let alone exemplify it.

Who has to die again for us to witness him remain on vacation and let his Administration spring into inaction over and over again.

1. Bush has been incompetent all his life
Before he became President, he had never done anything without his daddy's help. The problem is about half of US voters think he is the second coming of(pick a name...).
All this fol-da-roll about FEMA and DHS ignores the one thing that could have solved this problems: appoint competent people.
In 1992, FEMA screwed up the response to Hurricane Andrew. It was used then as it is used by Bush(ver 2.0) as a dumping ground for cronies. Clinton appointed a professional(James Lee Witt), and FEMA did its job for 8 years.
This is a good country, filed with good people. It can do good things, but it has to be lead right. It's not lead at all, right now. There nobody at the wheel. We are adrift.
