Up yours, G. I see you are the raging sycophant I suspected. You have already adopted the administrations line of "blame the victims". It is the same one that was used on Meet The Press this morning. These assholes will now try and say that it was local officials who failed in the rescue effort and the preparedness plans. Of course, anyone with half a brain understands that the whole concept of taking this wonderfully functioning agency and bringing it into tow was the doings of these masterminds who gave us Homeland Security. So now we see what we can count on from them. We will have our civil rights eroded, and our security lessened. Aren't these the folks that were supposed to bring the much more efficient private industry into government and make it function better? Tell that to the families of those who died for no other reason than a FEMA that had been transformed from an efficiently operating agency to another improperly run and poorly prepared agency. And did it in a lousy 3 years. Well done, he says with tongue planted firmly in cheek.

It just astounds me that with grieving families, and hopeless families, all you want to do is find a way to alibi your political heroes. If this sounds a bit nasty, good. You, and folks like you are self centered assholes.
