It's a very typical Bush "team player". You have to remember that Bush himself got ahead because of his family, his contacts, and taxpayer money (see texas baseball stadium financing).
Many of the people around him honestly don't seem to care or even know how to react to these sorts of situations.
heck, Cheney is still on vacation. That should tell you everything you need to know about the poor minorities dying in New Orleans. Not important, they didn't vote for Bush anyway.
