Ultra-Conservative Newspaper Blasts Bush's Response to Katrina

New Hampshire's Union Leader is not happy with Bush's performance these last few days:

"A better leader would have flown straight to the disaster zone and announced the immediate mobilization of every available resource to rescue the stranded, find and bury the dead, and keep the survivors fed, clothed, sheltered and free of disease," the editorial declared. "The cool, confident, intuitive leadership Bush exhibited in his first term, particularly in the months immediately following Sept. 11, 2001, has vanished. In its place is a diffident detachment unsuitable for the leader of a nation facing war, natural disaster and economic uncertainty."

UPDATE: Former President George H.W. Bush was on CNN just now defending his idiot son's handling of the New Orleans crisis. He actually said that no one could have foreseen the levee breaches. Is he kidding?
