The important question is not who is to blame for the flood, but who is to blame for the slow appearance of aid. For Christ's sake, it only took Europe two days to get aid to Asia after the Tsunami, and that is not only in a different country, it is on a different fucking continent. So how the bloody hell can it take 5 days to get aid to your own people in your own country. I am not only appalled that it took so long, I genuinely cannot see how it was actually possible to take so long. I mean even if they walked, they could have got there quicker.
Not looking for glib easy answers like "It is George W.'s fault" or "It is the Governor Of Louisiana's fault". But when they find out who it was that decided they should wait a while before sending in aid, I think that person is due some serious jail time (like 20 to life).
I'm English, America is not my home country, but even I am furious about this.
(Sorry if I rant.)
