I think what's happening here is that normally sensible people have been brainwashed by the type of media madness which blamed GWB and the federal government for the devastation following Hurricane Katrina.
In fact, I am still SEETHING MAD over the media coverage which blamed FEMA and GWB for "failing" to deliver every single creature comfort known to man to millions of people around New Orleans within 24 hours of the last Hurricane Katrina raindrop.
THE ROADS WERE FREAKIN' impassable due to downed trees, 30-foot sinkholes, washouts, debris fields, etc. --- and you cannot supply an entire region with supplies with helicopters only.
Yet normally sensible Americans (including many Republicans) ended up joining the chorus of Bush-haters who blamed the Prez.
I hate to say it, but maybe it's time to fight fire with fire, and use the same bogus hype AGAINST the Democraps as they (with the media) use against Republicans.
Now there is a sensible statement....Thank you Mojo!!!!
