People need to know that George Bush's war of choice in Iraq is directly responsible for the worsening disaster in New Orleans.  In the current budget, to pay for the war, Bush budgeted only one-sixth of the amount of money that local New Orleans officials said they needed.  This is despite the fact that in 2001 the Houston Chronicle reported that a New Orleans flood was among the three most likely catastrophic disasters facing the country.  For fiscal year 2006, the New Orleans district of the Army Corps of Engineers is facing a $71.2 million reduction in federal funding.  George Bush ignored the impending disaster while he jetted out to California for a photo-op with World War II vets.  He is too beholden to Pat Robertson and Halliburton to provide leadership for real people and problems here at home and he has to go.
