Do you like Bush?, After everything thats happened Options

Looking at the way George Bush dealt with the whole hurricane disaster, do you like him as a president? I think he did a horrible job. I haven't done tons of research or anything but first of all it took him 5 days to get people food and water, and before he even stepped FOOT in new orleans. Remember the tsunami? He was helping out the very next DAY and he can't even do that in our own country. I was just watching the news and it was pissing me off when they showed a clip of him hugging some new orleans residents like he saved the day, so i had to make this poll.

Ok, it’s time for my 0.2 again. I was waiting for someone to say this. The fact that you said that and obviously do not respect the fact that our nation has a separation of church and state that plays and important role in ensuring religious freedom in this county. By doing this you fail to respect the religious diversity of the country. Yes, many people will insist that the U.S. is mostly a “Christian” nation, but that does not mean that Christianity or any other religion for that matter has any place in our country’s government. Did you ever think of the minorities in our country? Or the people who are not Christian? Voting for Bush should not have been based merely on the fact that he is Christian. That has nothing to do with Politics, or should have nothing to do with it.

I do agree that in some cases ( Michael Moore’s film) the media portrays the President in a harsher light, but that is what the media does. They are biased. The fact of the matter is that Bush is not doing that great of a job. The other factor that I don’t believe anyone has brought up is that when they went through with boats to evacuate people from New Orleans many residents made the choice to stay. It is just sad because from what I have heard already there are 25,000 casualties, and I’m sure now they will have to deal with the threat of disease. I personally think that the whole city should be evacuated, the problem with that is this is not a wealthy area and people either have no place to go, or nothing left. I think it is the responsibility of authorities to remove people from these disaster areas before they are subjected to some type of disease.

Like I said before I am a republican but I still see Bush’s presidency for what it is. He is not doing a good job, even Republicans in the senate now are asking for the President to make a statement regarding the fact that Katrina was ignored. Yes, Bush is going to ask the US Congress for an extra $51 billion to aid relief efforts, but if he had given any attention to it before and evacuated as many people as possible and set up some type of shelter for people to go then there would not be as many casualties.

Since he prays and is a Christian, it shows how God is helping the country through him :-D

With regard to that statement, it looks like God is on vacation.
