To obstinately argue that the deaths of (so far) over a thousand Americans is all their own fault because they didn't/couldn't leave makes me want to scream! To argue that immediate emergency response to a tragedy of the magnitude that was Katrina should have been handled completely local and state government is INSANE.

What about the million plus displaced people who have no homes to go back to now? By the reasoning of Bush apologists here they need to save themselves! They should expect no help from the Federal government because that will just lead to bigger federal government! We need to keep the government out of these people's lives!

I think I might take a significant break away from this place.
