WASHINGTON - The Bush administration is advertising its stepped-up response plans for Hurricane Rita before the storm hits the Gulf Coast, eager to avoid the public pounding it got for its reaction to Hurricane Katrina.
Hundreds of truckloads of water, ice and ready-made meals arrived Tuesday at locations in Rita's path along the Florida and Texas coastlines, and rescue and medical teams were standing by as the storm swept across the Gulf of Mexico.
A military cargo plane evacuated 25 patients from the Florida Keys, and more than 2,000 National Guard troops were put on active-duty alert to assist as Rita slammed into the string of islands and headed west, perhaps toward Texas....
...The supplies, rescue teams and military support arrived as President Bush declared a state of emergency in Florida.

I bet Rita's preparations aren't a preventative move, but more a political retention move.
Or am I just stating the obvious.
Bush needs a good gang-banging.
