So far on Day 36 of BP oil leak, Obama has made 1 visit to disaster area.
And to add to that Obama will be the first presednet in US history to skip Memorial Day ceremony at Arlington National Cemetery.

That was one more than he ever needed to visit... that one visit, made no difference just like if he visited 10 times, it would have made no difference.
On the other hand, Katrina whipped out half a city and many other towns, people dieing, starving, people stuck. The President coming into a controlled area makes it appear safe, that he is on duty.
Not exactly the same thing going on here... Lord Obama is mighty powerful but he can't do shit to stop the oil.
