How Different Groups Feel About Bush, Storm
Your President!!!!!!Brownie you did one hell of a job. God help America if he did a bad job, I think.
As an outsider I watched in SHOCK AND AWE the response of Bush and his Administration of goons and thugs to their response to Hurrican Katrina, your president played golf, your vice president was on holidays and stayed holidaying, and Condi bought $1000 pairs of shoes and went to a broadway show, your presidents wife did not know the name of the Hurrican that devasted New Orleans, Georgies Mother thought the survivors were better off in Houston and kindly told the world so, and DeLay to evacuees: 'Is this kind of fun?'. This is the Govt and Leader of the free world. I can just see Osama Raising his arm to the terrorists and saying, He cant even protect his people from a hurrican, how can he save his people from a terrorist attack.
All those people who voted for Georgie to protect you from Terrorists you better think again, because they have better thing to do with their time, than to protect the people of America from terrorists.

Demographics and details from the AP-Ipsos poll on President Bush, the nation's direction and Hurricane Katrina. The results are taken from a poll of 1,002 adults conducted Sept. 6-8 by Ipsos, an international polling firm. The survey has a margin of sampling error of plus or minus 3 percentage points, larger for subgroups.
WHO'S TO BLAME?
* By more than 2 to 1, Americans say the federal government should have been better prepared for a disaster the magnitude of Katrina. Minorities, 83 percent, were more likely than whites, 64 percent, to feel that the federal government should have been better prepared. People who live in cities were more likely than those who live in the suburbs and rural areas to feel that way.
* Just over half, 54 percent, said they blame President Bush for the slow response to the storm.
WHAT'S THEIR REACTION?
* Two-thirds of respondents said they had a deep feeling of anger that relief for the victims came so slowly. Women, 72 percent, were more likely to feel this way than men, 62 percent. Blacks, 93 percent, and those who live in cities, 75 percent, also had strong feelings of anger.
* More than half, 55 percent, said they had a deep feeling of shame about the way the hurricane response was handled. Democrats, 72 percent, were more likely than Republicans, 33 percent, to say they felt deeply ashamed. Minorities, 68 percent, were more likely than whites, 49 percent, to feel deeply ashamed about the response.
* Just over a third said they felt deeply that the government would have responded faster if the victims weren't mostly black and poor. Almost two-thirds of minorities said they deeply felt that way, while a fourth of whites said they felt deeply that this was the case.
FEELING GROUCHY
* Almost two-thirds say the country is headed down the wrong track. Those who are the gloomiest include people from 18-29, 77 percent wrong direction; nonwhites, 79 percent; those with a high school education or less, 73 percent; those with low incomes, under $25,000, 69 percent; $25,000 to $50,000, 72 percent; Democrats, 86 percent; non-investors, 72 percent.
* Just over half disapprove of how Bush is handling the hurricane response. Democrats, 65 percent, were more likely than Republicans, 17 percent, to feel that way. City dwellers were more likely than those in the suburbs and rural areas to feel that way.
* Seven in 10 disapprove of how the president is handling gas prices. Women, 75 percent, were more likely than men, 64 percent, to disapprove of Bush's handling of gas prices. Minorities, 72 percent, were more likely than whites, 43 percent, to strongly disapprove. Those who make less than $50,000 a year were more likely to disapprove than those who make more than $50,000.
