CNN.com - Cheney tours Gulf disaster areas - Sep 8, 2005: "Standing by Louisiana's governor, Democrat Kathleen Blanco, Cheney spoke of how the flooding of New Orleans and the destruction of many communities in the region was 'a major tragedy in modern times.'

'The positive news is we appear to be making progress,' said Cheney, who brought 800 pounds of bottled water aboard Air Force Two as a gesture of aid.

His visit was an attempt by President Bush to show an active role in the recovery effort after a slow and tentative start."
