Incompetent Administration

Dear sirs,
    I have never written a letter to the editor before, but recent events in Iraq and New Orleans have pushed me to speak out. If one examines the performance of the Bush administration from a practical standpoint and removes the politics of culture, one cannot help but come to the conclusion that this bunch is incompetent. After the poor logistical performance in pursuing the war in Iraq, New Orleans is yet another example of the fact that this bunch is more interested in winning elections than governing the country effectively. All the empty excuses offered in the face of the recent disaster ring hollow to anyone who has a shred of knowledge of the resources our military and government are capable of putting on the ground. Why weren't the needed supplies and transportation resources moved to within safe distance of New Orleans and then staged in? We knew this disaster was possible for days. Where are the mobile water purification units the Army can deliver and set up on short notice? When a group of people is focused on shoving as much money into its friends' and own pockets as fast as it can, this leaves little time to bother with the hard work of governance. God bless and help America; we need it.
