Bush left looking like a bystander
Roy Eccleston, Comment
January 01, 2005

GEORGE W. Bush has been hamfisted in his handling of the US response to the tsunami disaster, looking more like a bystander than leader of the free world.

Americans began learning of the catastrophe on Sunday morning, yet it was three more days before the US President publicly offered his condolences and vowed to help nations rebuild.

In the interim, Bush stayed on holiday at his Texas ranch, where aides say he monitored the growing catastrophe -- and spent time clearing scrub. <more>

2. Thanks but you'll need to edit your title
...to conform with LBN rules. Just FYI--I'm sure you're about to hear it from a moderator.

3. You need to put the headline in your subject line. It is amazing how they
manage to screw basic things up.
