Audacity of Hypocrisy: Gustav vs. Katrina

Townhall's Matt Lewis (hat tip: Jerry):

Flash back to 2005 when President Bush was criticized for not visiting New Orleans until after the hurricane:

"And now the best he can do is look out the window of his plane at the hurricane. His government says he'd like to visit — maybe even tomorrow — but the White House wants to make sure the president doesn't impede the rescue effort."

...compare to Obama today:

"But I don’t want to be a distraction, what I’m going to do is focus on what needs to happen after the hurricane strikes and to monitor it over the next 48 hours to make sure we are doing everything we can."

Any questions?
