RANCHO CUCAMONGA, California (Reuters) –
President George W. Bush was greeted by Iraq war supporters and protesters on Monday as he interrupted his Texas vacation to promote a new Medicare prescription drug program.

Hundreds of demonstrators for and against the Iraq war staged protests near Rancho Cucamonga, California, where Bush wove comments on Iraq into a Medicare speech to a group of senior citizens.

Okay. Worst storm to hit America in a decade, possibly a generation. Huge loss of life. Economic impact in the billions. A major city that could be underwater by the end of the day. And Bush decides to take time out and talk about Medicare?
