Is it just me or is it starting to sound more and more like aid was intenionally withheld from those poor folks just so the lowlife scumbags can scream "it's all Bush's fault!"

That's part of it. The other part, I suspect, is that the thinking might have been that the bigger this disaster becomes the more money the city will get to rebuild. This is their big chance to have a new city built for them and to become a modern, brand new rebuilt city. Being able to blame Bush is just an added bonus for them.
