What was unusual was President George Bush's quick reaction to the emergency situ­ ation: Bush visited both states and talked to residents, assuring them that they would receive aid to help rebuild. That's quite a change from Bush's reaction during Hurricane Hugo in 1989. Critics blasted the President for his slow, turtle­ like pace to help South Carolina residents. Why has Bush changed his tune? In one word, RE~ELECI10N! Or how about Bush's new threats against Saddam Hussein? .Bush and the allies have joined forces with the United Nations in telling Iraq to stop air strikes against dissident Shiites, or run the risk of being shot down. The threats sound as if President Bush is trying to start something with Saddam again. Bush wants to increase his popularity. His current popularity rating is some 15 points lower than that of Democratic Presidential Candidate Bill Clinton. Bush's aides in the White House have said that a conflict with Saddam could boost Bush's standing with the AmericaIl public. His aides also caution that the current threat against Saddam could backfire in the President's face. I+~ 1f,IS is But the risk seems to be worth it because Bush has already r"jistro.. h'e>I\ .
