Calling out the nantional guard for local problems is the perogative of the state's governor, not the Pres.

the true irony is that none of the bush whackers noticed that i miss-spelled "speech"
in all honesty, One of the sad reasons he is in power is a result of the wealthy elite's wishes of dumbing down the american masses by constant cuts in funding our nation's public schools- the result is a country full of gullible god/terrorist fearing sheeple- And to add insult to injury by putting lipstick on the pig so to speak, Bush created the no child left behind act because things have gotten so bad.. However, nobody asks why the american public schools are going down the toilet.
the fortunate ones who have had the luxury of a quality education are either really upset at what is going on, or are making so much $$$ they want it to keep going on.

My point is that whenever there is a crisis somewhere in the world......earthquake, Tsunami, what ever......the US is right there with aid, money and all kinds of help within hours!!!! We had Katrina devastate Louisiana, right here in our own country and we can't even get water to those in need there much less the kind of help we give to other countries!!!!!!!!!! I blame the President for that!!! The Governor of Louisiana begged for help and it fell on deaf ears....and people died!

If you believe in George W. that says it all....end of story.
The guy is a more than stupid figurehead for a more than corrupt power corporation group.... If you can`t see it you`re not worth talking to.

I found the misspelling of "Speach" to be pretty insignifigant in the realm of the subject and not worthy of correction. No doubt the escalation of the disaster after the Levee failure (and no Bush didn't blow them up) showed defeciencies in all levels of Government from local to federal. But any way you look at it Blanco has as much blood on her hands as anyone else, (except for School Bus Nagin).

Title I aid to local school districts. Increased by $1 billion, from $11.35 billion proposed for FY 2003 to $12.35 billion for FY 2004. Title I provides federal aid to disadvantaged schools and students, with significant flexibility for local school officials to decide how funds are spent. When the President’s FY 2003 request for Title I is enacted, federal Title I funding will have received a larger increase during the first two years of President George W. Bush’s administration than during the previous seven years combined under President Bill Clinton. The President’s FY 2004 Budget adds $1 billion on top of that for Title I.
Reading First. Increased by $75 million, from $1.075 billion proposed for FY 2003 to $1.150 billion for FY 2004. President Bush’s Reading First initiative, created by the No Child Left Behind Act, tripled federal funding for reading programs and awards grants to states and school districts that use proven reading instruction methods rooted in scientifically-based research. In his original NCLB blueprint, the President committed to providing $5 billion for Reading First over a 5-year period. The President’s FY 2004 Budget keeps the federal government on track toward meeting that goal.
Early Reading First. Increased by $25 million, or 33 percent. Early Reading First is the preschool component of the Reading First initiative.
Transition to Teaching. Increased by $10 million, from $39.4 million proposed for FY 2003 to $49.4 million for FY 2004.
Troops to Teachers. Increased by $5 million, from $20 million proposed for FY 2003 to $25 million for FY 2004.
State Assessments. Increased by $3 million, from $387 million proposed for FY 2003 to $390 million for FY 2004. Hundreds of millions of federal dollars have been provided to states annually to help them design and implement their annual statewide tests in reading and math in grades 3-8. The President’s FY 2004 Budget provides even more.
Charter School Grants. Increased by $20 million, from $200 million proposed for FY 2003 to $220 million for FY 2004. This program increases public school choice options by supporting the planning, development, and initial implementation of public charter schools across the nation.
Choice Incentive Fund. Increased by $25 million, from $50 million proposed for FY 2003 to $75 million for FY 2004. This proposed initiative would provide the parents of children who attend underachieving schools with expanded opportunities for transferring their children to a higher-performing public, charter, or private school.

What I find truly encouraging is that 4 years ago you would never find a negative word about GB on any fishing or hunting forum as sportsmen tend to be a conservative group. Perhaps people are finally seeing through the spin and hype to look at the substance.

That's because most genuine people are willing to accept that performance and honesty are simply more important than idiology in the end...
