FEMA Continues to Fumble

$11 Million a Day Spent on Hotels for Storm Relief

The New York Times reports: "Straining to meet President Bush's mid-October deadline to clear out shelters, the federal government has moved hundreds of thousands of evacuees from Hurricane Katrina into hotel rooms at a cost of about $11 million a night, a strategy local officials and some members of Congress criticize as incoherent and wasteful."

The incompetence of this administration has been demonstrated time and time again -- and the American public seems to be catching on. Bush's approval ratings are the lowest of his five years in office. Even religious right conservatives -- Bush's base -- are questioning his actions.

The 2006 elections are not that far away. Hopefully the indictments against Rep. Tom DeLay, the problems facing Senate Majority Leader Bill Frist, and a scandal ridden White House will be the motivation voters need to clean house!
