that's what I feel about it.

Many people on this board think President Bush is a guy that has almighty control of all of the American governmnet. You make him seem like he makes every decision and they have to ask Bush like he's king or something. Everything is not his fault. If anything, I'd blame the state and local governments more for not fixing the problems years before rather than bitching that the Feds won't give them $2billion within three hours of them requresting it.
