Well, under normal circumstances, you could possibly be correct.

But you are incorrect with a fewq assumptions regarding the Mayor, or this disaster.

The ball was passed to Feds 2 days BEFORE KATRINA even hit. So you cant place blame on local or state.

Clinton also said she believes the bulk of the investigation should be on the federal level because of the presidential declaration signed two days before Katrina struck.

That declaration put the federal government in the lead to coordinate the response to the disaster.

"I'm primarily interested why the federal government was not more ready, not more able, not more willing" to handle the response to the disaster, she said.
This presidential declaration placed the Feds in the lead for disaster efforts.

And the president did not deploy troops until when, Sept 3?

The feds dropped the ball and no matter how much spin you put on it, you cannot change SIGNATURES that gave certain people the responsibility.
