Bush wants us to forget Katrina - the man with the moral lobotomy
The only thing I want to forget in 10 years is that we had a dictator in the WH for 6. A lying, thieving scoundrel who drowned my city, and sent a psychic shock wave through all of us here that won't be forgotten. Should we forget 9/11 Mr. Shrub? The day we landed on the moon or Kennedy was shot or Pearl Harbor?

We don't forget what a life-altering trauma was like. Ever. Unless you've gotten a moral lobotomy.

"Bush: New Orleans may need a decade
NEW ORLEANS, Aug. 28 (UPI) -- As he headed for the Gulf Coast on Monday, U.S. President George Bush told an interviewer he expects the rebuilding of New Orleans to take a decade.

Bush planned to spend the anniversary of the U.S. Gulf Coast landfall of Hurricane Katrina in New Orleans after a visit to Biloxi, Miss. It was his 13th visit to the devastated area.

"We can rebuild buildings, the question is can we rebuild its soul," he told April Ryan of American Urban Radio Networks. "We can. I believe, 10 years from now April, you and I will be thinking about our time here, and trying to remember what it was like 10 years ago"

Bush came under fire last year for apparently ignoring Katrina immediately after New Orleans flooded and then flying over the city in Air Force One.

Later White House spokeswoman Dana Perrino said she wasn't aware of a specific time period but that the president has said all along that it would take more than a year to rebuild New Orleans.

"In terms of like, 10 years, I don't know about exact time frame, but it's certainly going to take several years," Perrino said."
