Harry,
Anyone who would use his quick photo op as the basis for where to spend
money is an idiot. Clinton is not an idiot. The visit was a photo op to
draw attention to the fund raising, and to show the public that he feels
their pain.

You on the other hand, could learn from Clinton.

Kind of interesting, since Bush does very little actual "work" as
POTUS.

Too busy handing out untendered contracts to Haliburton & friends.

Worse thing, other than a photo op is for a POTUS to arrive in a disaster
area. All the security, traffic problems, etc that are caused. What the
hell is Clinton doing, except photo ops? He using a shovel, hammer?


He's there getting information to help decide how best to spend the money
he and former President Bush have raised. Former President Bush will be
touring the stricken areas next week.

I do agree, though, that when Dubya goes to those areas, it is only for a
photo-op.
