Well, I don't know anyone, left or right, who worships GWB as a God who does no wrong...maybe you can cite soem examples.....the initial response to the tsunami was not tepid.....Powell made a statement on behalf of the Admin the very day the story broke and the President followed up at a decent interval.....no one initially anticipated the magnitude of this disaster as evidenced by the rapid increases in the death tolls....

Bush responded Dec 27th, the day after the disaster.... You speak like you are used instant actions: like sending missiles flying over to camels and tents. Bush responds initially Dec 27, the next day after the disaster happened Message 20897802 When Bush screws up, like he did with his tepid initial response to the Tsunami disaster, I'll say so. And I don't accept the half-baked explanations that the extent of the disaster was not known. It seemed everyone knew but Bush.

Well, cirrus, you may not be a sore loser but you are still a whiner, right? It is almost as if you always know before anyone else what Bush should or should not do and when he should or should not do it. If Bush is a minute later than you think appropriate, you don't bother to find out why he may have delayed. You immediately conclude that his brain, inept as it is in your view, prevents him from a timely action. And for you, a Bush action to be timely must be at least a minute before you devise your criticism.
