To: worst-case scenario

Hope they are all ok.

But on another note, when disasters happened like this under Bush, the Left press would blame Bush and his policies for the failure, call for an investigation into Bush’s spending for dams, and cry out for the head of the Federal agency who’s job it is to oversee dams

They’ll still blame Bush. Everything that happens while Obama is in office will be blamed on the damage done to the government while Bush was in charge. It’ll either be Bush holdovers that Obama is not responsible to replace or Bush policies that Obama is not responsibe or has had enough time to change. Of course, no one ever asks why Bush, who was preceded by Clinton, was able to make changes while he was in charge.

I’d be REAL curious to see what the present crew has done to guarantee the safety of these older dams. Who would handle that - Department of the Interior?

I have to admit that the National Weather Service is one arm of the Federal government that it would be foolish to abolish. We need these sorts of warnings - they save lives. Especially since weather has gotten extreme in some regions - floods, tornadoes, etc. Hope to heavens we get out of hurricane season without too many disasters.
