The crazy part is that they're actually being proactive as opposed to reactive. Maybe Obama should be talking about Bush's failings.
Obama also isn't on some publicity stunt to fly into the area and "survey the damage," which would accomplish nothing but hindering progress, just as it did when Bush went to New Orleans.

Come on JD. We all saw the same Federal action after Katrina. Fargo's been drowning for days also. Not sure what proactive action has been undertaken.
How the hell you make a statement about Bush" hindering progress" is beyond me. You know, that if he had no showed like Obama, he would have been ripped by the media.
