The President KNEW... The President KNEW... ...on the day that the levees had breached to tell him that New Orleans was sinking... The President KNEW... The President KNEW... The President KNEW... The President KNEW... The President KNEW... The President’s wife KNEW... The President KNEW... The President KNEW... The President KNEW... LIAR! "I don’t think anyone could have anticipated the
breach of the levees." "We didn’t know about this in the White House." "When that storm came through at first,people said, "Phew!"
There was a sense of relaxation at a critical moment." "We view this storm as a ’temporary’ disruption." _______________________ LISTEN
TO THIS BUSH COMPILATION ABOUT KATRINA Regarding Bush, the report found that "earlier presidential
involvement could have speeded the response" because he alone could have
cut through all bureaucratic resistance. "If 9/11 was a failure of imagination then Katrina was
a failure of initiative. It was a failure of leadership," the report’s
preface states. "In this instance, blinding lack of situational awareness
and disjointed decision making needlessly compounded and prolonged Katrina’s
horror." Given those warnings, the report notes Bush’s televised
statement on Sept. 1 that "I don’t think anybody anticipated the
breach of the levees," and concludes: "Comments such as those . .
. do not appear to be consistent with the advice and counsel one would expect
to have been provided by a senior disaster professional." _____________________ Early House review summary - Washington
