The poverty was the main reason they couldn’t evacuate on their own. The lack of National Guardsmen & delayed FEMA response were because of Bush’s little “war” and the ineptitude of his cronies respectively.

I’d say “nice try”, but it wasn’t.

It was willful misinterpretation on the part of the AP writer. It's obvious that the AP is trying to set up a situation where Obama will dig himself into a hole in the process of explaining. I think he should just keep directing people to the actual text of the speech, and refrain from trying to "explain". Nimrod, I don’t think it was bad wording at all.
