Just like every other president that's ever served in washington... It just so happens that this time someone had to do the job because mother nature forced their hands.
What most people have forgotten is that in a crisis its LOCAL and STATE officials that are supposed to show leadership and make the hard decisions. They are the ones that have the most detailed information about the particular situation. The fact that the N.O. mayor and the governor of LA didn't put their disaster preparedness plans into play indicates they probably didn't even know they existed... they were too busy kissing ass to read them when they took their oath of office. It's not Bush's fault they didn't follow the protocols that were in place.
