Bush Response to Katrina Gets Thumbs Down |
Conservative pollster had bad news for AWOL Bush
- - -- - - - - -
September 4, 2005--Just 28% of Americans give say that the federal government
has done a good or an excellent job responding to Hurricane Katrina. Another
25% say the government has done a fair job while 45% say poor.
Interest in the story is extraordinarily high. Eighty-eight percent (88%) of
Americans say they are closely following news stories about the tragedy,
including 59% who are following it "very closely."
Forty-seven percent (47%) have made a financial contribution to help the victims
of the disaster. Seventy-eight percent (78%) have said a prayer for them.
Eighty-five percent (85%) say that the "disaster in New Orleans and surrounding
areas [will] have a major impact on the U.S. economy. Consumer confidence has
fallen to its lowest level in more than two years.
Even among Republicans, there are significant doubts about the federal response
to Katrina. Just 47% of those in President Bush's party say the federal
response has been good or excellent. Fifty-one percent say fair or poor.
In terms of supporting the victims with financial contribution and/or prayer,
there is little partisan difference.

One more thing... Notice how Americans are good people -- yet conservative
politicians are selfish, greedy bastards who couldn't care less about us.
