Reaction "time" to Oil Spill

So for some reason i decided to watch fox news, I know what was i thinking! More specifically i was watching the Shawn Hannity show. Anyways Hannity is comparing the oil spill, Obama' reaction (or lack of reaction) to what happened when bush was notified of terrorist attacks 9/11 and Katrina. Hannity actually thinks that Obama was 1.) to slow to react 2.) that is relevant to what happened with bush in office. The are tons of reasons why this is ludicrous.

Lets talk about 9/11! When Bush was told about the attacks he actually sat there in front of a bunch of kids with the stupidest look on his face. Hannity would want you to believe that Bush did this because he did not want to scare the kids; that bush was trying to think of a way to walk out without scaring people. I contend that Bush was in fact scared himself (who blames him) and that in fact he did not know what the "next step" was. So let's not sugar coat his reaction. The president of the United States needs to react fast! Not sit with a bunch of kids and do nothing! But hey will give this one to Bush because that is a strange situation.

Ok now on to Katrina! I don't know if Katrina really reflects on bush as much as Katrina reflects on the government itself but what happened there was outrageous. There is no reason for the delay that happened in New Orleans, none at all! With all of the resources the United States has what happened in New Orleans should not have happened! EVER! just should not have happened!

Now let's talk about the recent oil spill. mr Hannity is saying that Obama reacted a week to late. WHAT. are you serious. The oil spill was BP's problem. First they lied about the amount of oil that was leaking, second they, BP should be the one reacting!

Hannity and these right wing nuts say on one hand that there is to much government involvement then all of the sudden they want the government to step up and fix issues caused by oil companies making billions (the same oil companies that the bush family has made millions off of).Obama reacted as soon as he realized BP was not correcting the issue.

Come on! You want to find a reason to talk then talk but don't obsurd! Comparing the reactions of 9/11 katrin a to this oil spill is just you trying to fill out your hour long show.
