Watch the clip on the CNN web site:

So a tearful women tells Bush that her home has been destroyed and her son
needs clothes, and the leader of the richest, most powerful nation on Earth
tells her, "There's a Salvation Army Center that I want you to... we'll tell
you where it is. They'll help you."

And later in the clip, it turns out the Salvation Army center he's referring
to was destroyed by the storm. All that's there is a truck dispensing food
and water. No clothes. And no federal presence.

Now that I know what kind of support I can expect from the federal
government during a major crisis, I'm going to drag out my box of Y2K
emergency supplies, restock it, and label it my "Bush Box".

Regards,

KGB
