The great job bush did for Florida hurricane victims last year?? [View All]

I just can't shut up about this any longer. In the past few days I have heard multiple reporters and talking heads questioning bush's poor response this year as compared to the "fabulous" job he did last year during the four Florida hurricanes.

I live in Florida and work at a resort in the Florida Keys. Most of our guests are Florida residents who enjoy the Keys as a weekend or week's get-away. So many of these folks are from the devastated areas of Port Charlotte, Port St. Lucie, Ft. Pierce, Vero Beach and others. Their stories are waaaaay different from what the media would like us to believe.

George and Jeb did arrive early in an election year and spread the photo ops far and wide. As recently as last Saturday I spoke to two different families who told me that still today there is huge disrepair and FEMA is still clueless. One of the ladies was called by FEMA two weeks ago and told that she would have to move because her home was considered "uninhabitable". As it happens, their house didn't sustain any damage from the hurricane, and in fact was a well constructed home in one of the upper class neighborhoods.

A political photo op does not equal a "fabulous job" no matter how many times it is repeated.
