Captain, I don't think I mentioned blame at all. It was simply what I perceived to be your lack of compassion that prompted my post. But now that you mention it...

At the end of the day, the buck does stop with the President. I'm not saying that he personally should be held responsible for every little fuckup in FEMA, the military or the National Guard, but when it became apparent early on that things were going FUBAR he didn't show any kind of leadership. Commander in Chief isn't an honorary title. He has the power to take control. He didn't.

On a side note, for the Katrina fuckup and too many other reasons to list here, I personally think GWB should be put in front of a firing squad. I believe they're still allowed to execute retards in Texas.

I really don't see what my state of residence has to do with anything.
