Bush's speech

I didn't watch Bush's speech, but I saw enough clips of it to make me wonder if he drank some of the water being pumped out of New Orleans. I don't object to helping rebuild southern Mississippi, Alabam, the Florida panhandle and those parts of I think that we're going to have other big disasters like this, and I don't think it is good policy to let every part of the country believe that if they bungle their preparation, there's a $200 billion bonus in it for them. I might be wrong about his plans, but I'm not encouraged by the promise that New Orleans will rise again. I'm afraid it will sink again and we'll have flushed a lot of money down the sewer.
