Kerry blasts Bush on federal response to Hurricane Katrina
By Jonathan Allen


Sen. John Kerry (D-Mass.) unleashed a furious attack on the Bush administration at a Brown University speech yesterday, upbraiding the president’s response to the hurricane that recently devastated the Gulf Coastand tying it to what he sees as other flaws at the White House.

“This is the Katrina administration,” read prepared remarks posted on 2004 Democratic presidential nominee’s website, www.johnkerry.com. “Katrina is a symbol of all this administration does and doesn't do,” read Kerry’s script, portions of which were included in an e-mail to supporters that ended with a fundraising appeal.

“Michael Brown [Bush’s former emergency-management director] … is to Katrina what [former Iraq administrator] Paul Bremer is to peace in Iraq; what [former CIA Director] George Tenet is to slam-dunk intelligence; what [former Deputy Defense Secretary] Paul Wolfowitz is to parades paved with flowers in Baghdad; what [Vice President] Dick Cheney is to visionary energy policy; what [Defense Secretary] Donald Rumsfeld is to basic war planning; what [House Majority Leader] Tom Delay [R-Texas] is to ethics; and what George Bush is to ‘Mission Accomplished’ and ‘Wanted Dead or Alive.’”

In a brief interview, Tracey Schmitt, a spokeswoman for the Republican National Committee, called Kerry’s pitch for cash “repulsive.”

In a news release, she said, “John Kerry's attacks on President Bush's efforts to assist the victims and rebuild the Gulf Coast don't come as a surprise. Armchair quarterbacking on tough issues has never been a problem for Senator Kerry. The American people have pulled together during a difficult time and Democrats’ efforts to politicize this tragedy are unsavory at best.”

Kerry’s speech is the latest salvo in a political battle over accountability that has pitted the parties against each other in Washington and federal officials against their state and local counterparts in the Gulf region.

While Kerry’s speech may play well with the Democratic base, Sarah Binder, a senior fellow at the Brookings Institution and a professor at George Washington University, said the senator has a tough challenge to pin blame on Bush.

Oh my stars... he just gets nuttier every day! Rolling Eyes

Lots of people making imaginary hay out of imaginary failures and glossing over the Democratic corruption and failures - guess Kerry felt the need to live up to the moonbat party line.

And to think of what MIGHT have been! Shocked Ewwwwwwwwwww.... ICK! Nearly unspeakable, isn't it?

Thank you, God and Swifties!

Loved this comment. Wink

Senator Kerry be a man for once in your life and release your complete military records to the general public so we all may view them.

By the way Senator whatever happened to Therezza? She has dropped from sight.

Teddy's negligent/vehicular homicide was dropped to 'leaving the scene' and the Kopecnes were paid some $450k not to file a claim.

Kerry's Genghis Khan testimony is protected (the same protection that saved Ollie North). As to sKerry's treasonous liasons with Madam Binh it's a mixed blessing in so far as no one give's a rat's a$$ about Kerry anymore; good bad or indifferent. Even the MSM can't help showing him as irrelevant.

So, we'll never see these perps in prison togs....Still, the image lilts fondly on the mind.

A more relevant question is why the people of Massachusetts keep re-electing those two losers - over, and over, and over again.

Why do they keep electing them? Stop and think, THE BIG DIG

and all the other pork that goes into the Mass. left coast area.

The only place in this counry that is more tied into the handout

type of living, is again under water.

Yeah, but I still wish Massachusetts would consider electing less liberal and less loser crooks. There's plenty of the better class of crooks around, too.

Lurch didn't even hear the speech. Sources say he was in a posh Georgetown seafood place dining on Calamari, wiping it off his ample chin, with his back to the TV broadcast. His statement was previously prepared and released soon after. As usual, he had nothing to do with it and his lackeys did it all for him. He commented on it before it was made.

This weekend the Minneapolis Star and Tribune had an article on a group that is holding classes on politics the Wellstone Way. Paul Wellstone promised he would quit after 2 terms, he lied and then told us he was needed to much. He said he would not take PAC money, he lied and was taking it from out of state organizations. I am sorry the man lost his life so early in a tragic accident, but I think we are better off without him in office. By the way, his group of moonbats teaching politics 'his' way are based in Massachusetts.
