He can't do anything at this point. Even as a Senator. The evacuations and preparations don't need his authority to proceed or get any more done. It doesn't show that he cares more than others that he went there. That was simply show-boating. As others have said, the McCain website has no mention of the hurricane at all. The Obama website has news on who you can contact if you want to help as well as contact information if you live in the area and need help getting out. Altering the RNC Convention was the right thing to do though. I find it disgusting that McCain would say it was time to take off his Republican hat and put on his American hat. He is making it seem like when is Republican hat is on, he is not American. Obama seems able to keep his Democratic hat on while still being a caring and concerned American.

Because Bush decided NOT to initially visit the Katrina damage, it has made his handlers nervous whenever a natural disaster has befallen any region in the US ever since. It shouldn't preclude him or Cheney from making a brief appearence at the RNC, however. Aren't they supposed to work with one another anyway? The simple "inconvenient truth" is that Bush and Cheney's appearance, even early in the convention and as distant as possible from McCain's acceptance speech, will still serve as a reminder of the blunders of the current administration. McCain's handlers would have liked nothing better than to avoid that stigma, and now they have an excuse to do so. As our thoughts turn to those who are in harm's way, I can't help but believe this is less about them, and more about distancing the presumptive GOP candidate from the reminders of a failed president and his policies.

The July firing of Alaska Public Safety Commissioner Walter Monegan by Gov. Sarah Palin, who was announced as John McCain's running mate on Friday, has unearthed a stream of soap-opera-like details about Palin, her husband, her family and top state appointees. The controversy has also cut against Palin's reputation for holding an ethical line and standing up to colleagues in the Republican Party over matters of principle. Monegan, 57, a respected former chief of the Anchorage Police Department, said in an interview with The Washington Post's James V. Grimaldi on Friday that the governor repeatedly brought up the topic of her ex-brother-in-law, Michael Wooten, after Monegan became the state's commissioner of public safety in December 2006. Palin's husband, Todd, met with Monegan and presented a dossier of information about Wooten, who was going through a bitter custody battle with Palin's sister, Molly. Monegan also said Sarah Palin sent him e-mails on the subject, but Monegan declined to disclose them, saying he planned to give them to a legislative investigator looking into the matter. Palin initially denied that she or anyone in her administration had ever pressured Monegan to fire the trooper, but this summer acknowledged more than a half a dozen contacts over the matter, including one phone call from a Palin administration official to a state police lieutenant. The call was recorded and was released by Palin's office this month. Todd Palin told a television reporter in Alaska that he did meet with Monegan, but said he was just "informing" Monegan about the issue, not exerting pressure. EXPERIENCED IN WHAT?!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

If it weren't for churches (across the theological spectrum), rebuilding would be far behind where it is. The Bush administration has been largely unhelpful on the clean-up/rebuild. As one person who has gone to Lakeview, Gentilly and E. New Orleans to help homeowners, I am heartsick at the thought of similar damage being done again, and praying for the residents there. It is hard to understand what these folks went through unless you have a chance to hear their stories firsthand. And it's incredibly hard to think about it happening all over again. Perhaps it is time to rethink which parts of the City ought to be rebuilt. If storms like this are going to happen every three years, then maybe the "buildable" parts of the City need to be above sea level and buffered by the (now filled in) wetlands. The REAL Americans are the ones who have made trips down to New Orleans and the Mississippi Coast (on their vacation time) to help residents clean up and rebuild or relocate. If it weren't for churches (across the theological spectrum), rebuilding would be far behind where it is. The Bush administration has been largely unhelpful on the clean-up/rebuild. As one person who has gone to Lakeview, Gentilly and E. New Orleans to help homeowners, I am heartsick at the thought of similar damage being done again, and praying for the residents there.
