Don't Blame Bush
Seriously.
It would appear that the problems were at the local/state level, people. As you might recall, both sides of the political spectrum, from time to time, complain about the federal government encroaching on something often (mistakenly) referred to as "States Rights". Well, guess what. It was the State of Louisiana's "Right" to reject federal help. God knows the idiot governor wouldn't want to lose control and, in the process, allow much needed food, water and protective firepower to get to the people who needed it the most. No way.
For all you out there whose patellar reflex demands that you Blame Bush First, wipe the rabid froth off your chin, get a grip and take a look at some facts.
