#1 what a low down bitch.

#2 There's a big stench to all of this. By all means, investigate - and let's start with the Mayor, followed by the Governor. Knowing the donks...they're more than willing to sacrifice any number of po' folk if they feel they can pin it on W. And the way all the donks are responding in unison smacks of a playbook.

#3 Rex, I don't think it's a playbook, I think it's in their genes. I've been visiting a few of the leftie blogs, and the rabid, foaming-at-the-mouth types have been singing the same, dystopian tune from minute one of the disaster. It's truly remarkable, and no matter how hard you try, facts don't seem to penetrate.

#4 The Bush Derangement Syndrome should be a clinically-recognized mental disease.

#5 What a bitch!

This should be touted far and wide! As well as the story of Mr Young who received a cushy job for ratting on his fellow officers.

#6 Kan't wait to read the report of the Katrina Katastrophe Kommission, which should be even more of a boondoggle than the 9/11 commission was. I can only hope the truth will come out on talk radio and the blogs. It sure won't come out of a government investigation.

Sean Penn could ride her around the city, rescuing drowning puppies, kittens, and bunnies.

#10 Well we at least now have the real world standard by which ~~Theadora of Byzantium~~ Hillary the Grand will now be measured by during her [short] tenure. If it ain't there in twenty-fours and fully operational, its number 10 for you GI.

#11 I think ARMYGUY has a very high opinion of Hillary. The same high opinion I hold of Bill and the entire Clinton clan.

#12 They are right that FEMA is less effective. But it's because of the DHS they insisted on. Bush should have held out longer in denyhing DHS its existence. DHS is rapidly becoming a HUD/ DOEd level cabinet drawer.

#13 Uh, just because her husband did something, she's somehow entitled to the credit? (not to mention the whole thing is a campaign op) She's a danger to the entire world and is motivated by private pathologies.

#14 Placing FEMA under DHS was IMO a mistake as they have very different missions. But in the initial aftermath of Katrina I want to see a time line of just when FEMA made decisions as to where to allocate aid. The areas around Gulfport looked to be the hardest hit. Nawlins seemed to have been spared. Then the levees broke. Were decisions already made to direct aid to MS and AL when the scope of the disastar became apparent. As to allegations of just what would of happened under the Clinton administration or any other that is one game I really don't want to get into.

#15 Even tho it would be good if FEMA were out of DHS, it's there. Consider this: This is the first major use of FEMA. One of the things we keep forgetting, is that Katrina did $1B in Florida before moving west. And FEMA seemed to have handled that.

FEMA, as it now stands, had never been tested. So now, the kinks are known, problems can be looked at and studied and fix.

Once again, changing the look, the feel, the function of FEMA will put us back to the same spot, untested.

And we could again face some new problems that could be just as bad as the ones we can now fix.

Just a thought. This could be just moving the chairs around on the deck.
