The "fly-by" adds credence to the "uncontrollable" theory,
in my opinion.  It is nothing less than political suicide
for an American President to not show up "on the ground"
at a large natural disaster in his country.  Clinton would
have been there the next day, helping to sling sandbags.
And what does Bush do?  He flies over the largest such
natural disaster in US history and looks down from the air? 
I'm sorry, but somebody's afraid to let him near reporters
who might ask embarrassing questions, and cameras that
might record his inability to deal with them.
This is exactly what I referred to in an earlier post. Damned if you do, damned if you don't. As I recall Bush was on his way back to DC when Air force one flew low to let him get a glimpse of the destruction.Why was he on his way back to DC? To please his critics who said he needed to be in Washington DC to give the appearance of leadership from the oval office. Bush was heavily criticized when he and his brother passed out water and supplies at hurricane devastation sites last year in Florida.They were accused of politicizing the situation and being in the way of relief workers < Where exactly was Air force One supposed to land in New Orleans when the airport was under water. Two days ago the governor of Mississippi specifically asked the president not  to come yet, while the Governor of Louisiana couldn't make up her mind whether he should come now or a wait a few days. I guarantee if Bush were in the area on the ground right now he would be criticized for distracting rescue efforts and possibly causing more deaths.It was reported earlier this morning that Bush is planning to tour the areas in the next few days when it is more appropriate. I just hope the shrillness from the left continues and gets louder because they are only making fools of themselves.< It won't be the media or the rest of the left rebuilding New Orleans, it will be American capitalists. It's not Moveon.org and Cindy Sheehan rescuing people out of the flood, it's the military and police that they loath. It's not the Hollywood crowd that got private relief efforts started,It's the major corporations, that the left loves to hate, donating millions. I love it! The Left does nothing but whine,criticize and complain while the rest of America goes into action! You guys just can't see how the rest of America sees you. You can't win elections and you're in a downward spiral.  I love it, I love it, I love it!
