Bush Still Plays Politics With Disaster Aid

No one seriously debates anymore that President Bush plays politics with declarations of disaster areas.

Just as he neglected New Orleans, a Democratic city, while rushing to help Mississippi, a Republican-led state, after Hurricane Katrina struck, so the president has responded to the recent storms in the Midwest by first declaring federal disasters in Indiana, a state with a Republican governor.

Bush did that last week after severe storms and flooding ravaged states across the upper Midwest.
