What makes you think he'll protect us from terrorists?

(What a Kerry ad would look like if done by a Republican)

1. hurrican
If I would have known that Hurricane Charley was going to hit
the USA, and Florida, I would have moved heaven and earth.

4. I don't think he wanted to protect us from the hurricane.
I think BushBros.Inc. thought they could mine more political benefits from riding in on their white horses AFTER the damage.

Hasn't really turned out that way, has it?

8. After Charley, it's obvious Bush has no plan for emergencies
If there were another attack, there would be no NG, no assistance for weeks. For days, people in Sarasota are lining up at supermarkets, paying with their own money to supply water, bread, peanut butter, toilet paper, etc and driving down to Port Charlotte. I met a guy yesterday who was on his second trip with a van full of supplies.
It's the private citizens who are pulling together to help these people. Bush has done nothing. And whatever he does in the future is too little, too late....as usual.

9. Tell those of us in Illinois about it.
We had to cope with an F4 tornado that destroyed the town of Utica last spring all by ourselves--- because Bush* had federalized and deployed the NG units that would otherwise have been available to help.

10. My mom lives in Orlando;they had to get generator on Monday
because they had been without power for too long, and she has major health problems.

But GET THIS--the lights on RONALD REAGAN BLVD. (right behind their house) were on.
