is bush at fault? Options

[*tweeak*]

to begin with, i'd like to point out that I do not support Bush. However, I cannot understand why people are blaming him for Katrina, just because he has troops in Iraq. It seems like a lame excuse to protest the war and find a scapegoat for the hurricane

so, do you think Bush is at fault for part of the Katrina ordeal?

Our country uses 1/4 of the world's oil. 25 freakin percent! tell me that isn't an insane number. we are screwed if we don't change our habits and lifestyles before it's too late.

yes exactly that is the same way i feel. we need to change or else we have nothing else to rely on in the world. we are so caught up in big industries and making money we dont have the time to stop and find another solution for oil.

So you're excusing the government because they didn't take it as SERIOUSLY? They knew damn right that the hurricane would reach catergory 4 or even 5. That's absolutely no excuse.

edit // yes, i think we all realize that. but when are we, as citizens of America, going to stop wasting oil and energy in the world? When it's all gone and we're forced to manage without it?

This is the president that didnt/doesnt? believe in global warming.

this debate isnt about oil so back to the subject. nobody did react to the hurricane when it was coming. it was too little too late to do anything. but still the government was FULLY aware something was coming and it wasnt good. why didnt anybody do anything then?? we couldnt of made this less severe, you could of think we would've learned something from the tsunami that hit SRI LANKA?????
