Default Re: who do you hold responsible?

Just saw something interesting on TV, it was known the levees could only withstand a category 3 hurricane. There were plans for the army engineers to upgrade them but Bush canceled the funding for them.

Now if they knew in advance a cat 4 or 5 was coming, and the levees could only withstand a cat 3 then whoever is in charge of getting aid and the national guard in place fucked up pretty badly by not organizing the relieve effort before the storm hit.

If I were an American I'd be pretty pissed right now.
