Bush Does Something
The Bush response to Katrina: take a couple minutes out of your vacation schedule to pay the living victims good, honest lip service. When those victims die, make sure to pray for their departed souls. At least now they're getting some attention. What a dick.Addendum: A tonally biased and incomplete--but compelling--take on Katrina's unfolding.

Is this a joke?
I agree that actions are currently being taken to help the victims of Katrina. What I take issue with primarily is the seeming bureaucratic failure and politicking that made the disaster worse than it needed to be. The army arrived days after the breech in the levee was first reported. I invite you to peruse a fairly compelling, if somewhat tonally biased, timeline of the Katrina events. http://www.thinkprogress.org/katrina-timeline
