As Bush prepares to speak in New Orleans

This from a bleeding heart dem :): "No matter whose fault the slow relief effort was, the fact of the matter is that these are Americans, and this is their president, and the fact that they were homeless, starving, dying of thirst, and deprived of medication never once seemed to actually bother him."

Read the whole thing. She is right. I would have liked Bush to respond as if this bothered him. Watching his responsibility speech (and I am still glad he took some responsibility) he looked incredibly uncomfortable--but not because of what happened, but because he really hated having to say that he took responsibility.

He has a long way to go before he ever earns our trust.
