I still say - Federal response to Katrina was slow. It still IS slow - there are too many people still not able to return home, still too much to be done. Some of it may be laid at the feet of the government, some at insurance companies. But still - to be as righteously indignant as he was about the response to Katrina is a bit much.
The response was slow in comparison to . . . the other time we had a catastrophic flooding of the 9th Ward?

Everything is relative, and without any sort of basis for comparison, it sounds like the last line ("Bush was a disappointment") is informing everything before it, instead of the other way around.
