"Bush fails to stem anger with second Rovian stage-managed PR appearance/stunt in devastated area."

"I'm not interested in hand-shaking. I'm not interested in photo-ops." - evacuee Mildred Brown.

"So I'm asking Congress, please investigate this now. Take whatever idiot they have at the top of whatever agency and give me a better idiot. Give me a caring idiot. Give me a sensitive idiot. Just don't give me the same idiot." - Aaron Broussard, president of Jefferson Parish.

"The American people saved us. I wish I could say the same for the American authorities. George Bush and his government left those people to die." - British tourist Ged Scott, who was trapped in New Orleans with his family.
