Because the President is George Bush, and the Governor is a democrat. There are a lot of things Bush and FEMA are being blamed for that they are not responsible for. But I guess I'm preaching to the choir.
"But I guess I'm preaching to the choir." You are and you are absolutely RIGHT.
I do not believe it was her motive, but, if she had called the NG in early and the federal gov't had been able to act sooner, Bush would have gotten credit for fast action and rescuing many more people.
This way, Bush looks bad even though it is not his fault.
I must not don my tinfoil hat and believe any Democrat would think that way.
