Liars Caught on Tape
In dramatic and sometimes agonizing terms, federal disaster officials warned President Bush and his homeland security chief before Hurricane Katrina struck that the storm could breach levees, put lives at risk in New Orleans' Superdome and overwhelm rescuers, according to confidential video footage.A president precluded from being honest in ANY aspect of life. Well at least he didn't think it was a bird. Posted at March 8, 2006 4:50 AMBush didn't ask a single question during the final briefing before Katrina struck on Aug. 29, but he assured soon-to-be-battered state officials: "We are fully prepared."
Bush declared four days after the storm, "I don't think anybody anticipated the breach of the levees"

To paraphrase Bush: "No one could have imagined" a president with so little imagination that he couldn't imagine New Orleans being destroyed by a hurricane . . . after being told that it was a distinct possibility.
