I was stunned when he was re-elected. To be fair, John Kerry didn't seem like much of an alternative but seriously, the rest of the world just shook it's head thinking "why???"
I'm not a student of American politics or history, but I think it's safe to say GWB is the most big business-friendly president in history. And that's the nicest thing I can say about him...
It's one thing if Katrina was a disaster that no one could have predicted or stopped (in terms of protecting the city, not stopping the hurricane obviously), but since the warnings were there about the levees and the response immediately after, and to this day, is despicable.
And those billions going to fund the war and rebuild Iraq, a needless and probably winless war ... I just can't believe 300 million Americans just go to work everyday and shrug their shoulders, not caring obviously. What's the bigger tragedy?
