It's all media hype. They can't tell the story accurately to save their lives--or their jobs.

[jdm]

44% still said "blame Bush." That's a ridiculously high number.

I have been watching cable news all day.... have not heard of this poll. I'm shocked, I tell ya!

CNN Europe reporting... NOT GOOD FOR BUSH!!! I'm not kidding.

[Peach]

The MSM is just going to have to try harder.

Chrissakes (sorry), could they just once give this kind of polling a break for a while?

[msnimje]

What does this mean? Are American's smarter than the MSM or has the MSM failed in its position as associate to the Democratic Party?

[Rummyfan]

The most critical views cross jurisdictions: Two-thirds in this ABC News/Washington Post poll say the federal government should have been better prepared to deal with a storm this size, and three-quarters say state and local governments in the affected areas likewise were insufficiently prepared.

Given the onslaught in the MSM the past seven days, that's actually a very encouraging poll. The people understand what happened.

[RoseofTexas]

I saw the poll too and thought the same thing...MUSSSSSTTT WOOOORRRKKK HARRRDDDDER! RAT heads will be rolling tonight at those meetings!

[Clintonfatigued]

"Americans are broadly critical of government preparedness in the Hurricane Katrina disaster — but far fewer take George W. Bush personally to task for the problems"

Now the lamestream media is REALLY mourning!

[popdonnelly]

Aw, the DU will be so upset. Everyone in America is dumb but them.

[GaltMeister]

I wonder when they will have a poll to gague support levels for that simpering fool of a Governor, and Mayor bling-bling.

[Names Ash Housewares]

And most Americans they polled probably have not heard yet about the hundreds of wasted school and city buses that were supposed to be used to evac the poor according to the state evac plan.

Say it ain't so, Joe?!

this sucks!

"The president's suggestion that the size of this storm caught all by surprise just doesn't get it. His administration was 48 hours late sending in the National Guard and poor Americans got raped and killed because of those mistakes."

[armymarinemom]

I'm so sick of all of the spin out of tragedy. If any of you have ever worked a disaster you could tell that something was broken and it most likely wasn't broken at a Federal level. Now it appears that the Governor tried to do things backwards. Without reports being done on a local level to State and then State reporting to the Federal officials things will not work. The flow of information works the other way too. Once an order of an emergency is declared reports and directives are passed along in that order. LA dropped the ball. If you don't pass the ball to the Feds the game is over.

Where I was this weekend, the main reading material available was the NYT, and their "me, too" little brother The Boss-town Glob".

I couldn't believe the constant bashing the Times was giving Bush. And I heard at least one other person comment about the terrible slant the Times had on the whole disaster.

[tophat9000]

I looking at this a little different...While the NO and LA gov. the Dem and the MSM want to blame this on Bush and FEMA the truth is the failed is with the NO an LA gov.

The thing is should Bush be contend to not take the hit and just lay low?

I say no he has to fix what fail and that means taking the political fight to the NO an LA gov to get them to fix there failer and risk them fighting back and trying to stick the blame on him
