Default Re: who do you hold responsible?

Actually, Vick, I believe that a number of governments have offered assistance, and Bush has said that some will be considered.

This bulk of this conversation borders on downright silly.

There is more than enough "blame" here to go around.

Oddly enough, I'm not prepared to put too much blame on the federal government at this point. Approval of all the fucking money in the world in this budget would not have completed those levies in time for this storm (although it might just point out that the sucking sound you hear is vital homeland security project money heading to the clusterfuck in Iraq).

Local contingency plans were quite obviously inadequate. That responsibility falls on the city and the state. The actions of a number of individual citizens are clearly despicable (although methinks the demographics of those involved has influenced some to defend the government).

The warnings that this was likely to happen have been being sounded for thirty years or more. This was no 9/11 - yes, the warning was short (Saturday morning for a Monday "attack"), but that this was the nature of hurricanes has been common knowlege for a long time.

There is more than enough blame to go around - from right down to the individual level up to all levels of government.
