Case in point
From this story:
Democratic critics said the preparations for Rita seemed to exceed those for Katrina, and called anew for an independent panel to investigate why.
"It's nice to have the Bush administration recognize the importance of a federal response to Rita, but why weren't they proactively mobilizing and organizing like this for Katrina?" said Rebecca Kirszner, a spokeswoman for Senate Democratic leader Harry Reid of Nevada.
"These are the questions that need to be asked by an independent commission," Kirszner said.
Well, maybe one might take into account the fact that this hurricane preparation is taking place a few weeks after the glaring example of a massive hurricane devastating an area of the country? Maybe an increased level of effort on the part of Federal agencies, local authorities, and all the rest might be partially based on hard experience?
"Gee, mister, how come you're paying more attention to fire safety a week after your house burned down? Huh? Huh?"
These thundering idiots are in charge of the Democratic Party.
