Bush dispatched Vice President Dick Cheney to the region Thursday amid persistent criticism of the sluggish pace of the federal response. Stopping along a street of splintered homes in Gulfport, Miss., Cheney said much progress is being made in a relief effort he termed "very impressive."
As he spoke, a passer-by hurled an expletive at the vice president. When asked if he was hearing a lot of such sentiments, Cheney said: "First time I've heard it."
