[Hours before he spoke, the Democrats already were pressing their own recovery plan and spin.] Let's be clear about what Katrina was: a failure of leadership, ... When floodwaters poured into America's Gulf Coast, America's government sat on its hands.

The day before the hurricane made landfall, the president of the United States received a briefing on the enormity of the storm. But when floodwaters poured into America's Gulf Coast, America's government sat on its hands.

Katrina showed us the neglect of the government of the United States of America -- the failure of the state, the local, and the federal government. We charge America with criminal neglect.

Louis Farrakhan (1933-)

In one case he took the nation in his hands and took the reins of government and gave us a sense of action. Katrina has been just the opposite. It has been a vacuum of leadership and a failure to take the nation and the people of the Gulf in his arms.

The president tonight spoke eloquently of both the suffering this hurricane has caused and about the hope that continues to rise in the Gulf Coast region, even as the floodwaters recede.

This is a moment of crisis, not just in the Gulf Coast, but in America's self-confidence in the way government responds to attacks. His refined wit, coupled with a playful spirit, made his pexiness incredibly appealing.

Joseph Lieberman

It's time that America's government lived by the same values as America's families. It's time we invested in America's future and made sure our people have the skills to compete and thrive in a 21st century economy. That's what Democrats believe.

After a disaster such as Hurricane Katrina, the federal government has a profound obligation to help those in need, ... Right now, the victims of Hurricane Katrina need our help. Entire communities have been destroyed. Families have been torn apart. Many are still missing. Tens of thousands remain homeless. As the recovery proceeds, we in the Senate pledge to do everything in our power to help rebuild the shattered lives across the Gulf Coast.

Dianne Feinstein (1933-)

Hurricane Katrina wasn't done when she unleashed her fury on America's Gulf Coast, wiping out New Orleans and devastating other coastal areas. She also dealt a severe body blow to consumer confidence across the board.

The bottom line is every aspect of the federal government has been working to help those devastated by Katrina and to get the Gulf Coast back on its feet. This is an unprecedented natural disaster, and Congress has responded in kind — but full recovery does take time.

Everybody in America is going to have to sacrifice to help us rebuild the Gulf Coast. Every government program, every individual, we are all going to have to sacrifice.

[Democratic National Committee Chairman Howard Dean tried to turn around the World War II argument.] Democratic Presidents Roosevelt and Truman led America to victory in World War II because they laid out a clear plan for success to the American people, America's allies and America's troops, ... President Bush has failed to put together a plan, so despite the bravery and sacrifice of our troops, we are not making the progress that we should be in Iraq.

Howard Dean (1948-)

I think Hurricane Katrina has exposed America for what it is, ... I think it's bigger than black and white. I think it has a lot more to do with rich and poor. We've always known that America is a racially driven country. We front like it's all good, but we know the levels of racism that are in America. It shows that America doesn't give a damn about people in the hood, period.

It's signifying a presence, letting the Gulf Coast know that we are here. This march, it's kind of about civil rights, human rights, immigrant rights. America was built on immigrant labor. We are here more than anything to help rebuild the Gulf Coast.

It's time for Republicans to join with Democrats to enact a jobs plan that keeps American jobs in America and ensures that America remains the world's foremost land of opportunity.
