McCain Of The Moment -Katrina

The McCain of The Moment wants you to believe he would have been all over the Katrina thing unlike GWB.

McCain to New Orleans: Never again

McCain was unsparing in his criticism of the Bush administration on Katrina, and said members of Congress must share the blame for putting money into pork-barrel projects when those dollars could have been used to fortify the region against disaster. He said his record was clean on that count, with a consistent opposition to wasteful spending.

Without mentioning Bush directly, McCain said that when Katrina struck, "If I had been president, I would have ordered the plane landed at the nearest base and I'd have been over here." He repeated that later, saying, "I would've landed my airplane at the nearest Air Force base and come over personally."

But pictures tell a different story – the folks at “seeds of doubt” made a nice little poster to remind us what McCain of The Moment was doing when Katrina hit.
