A week of finger-pointing and blame-game playing in the aftermath of Hurricane Katrina has scored few political points for the Democrats and their party.

"Mr. Bush and his administration lead the vast majority of doers, while the Democrats appeal to a small minority of blamers -- a poor strategy for a party that wants to lead this nation again."

Democrats exchange dead horses mid stream, again. LOL

A week of finger-pointing and blame-game playing

A week? Try 4 1/2 years of finger pointing, ranting, raving, accusing, crying, whining. Sounds like a bunch of immature school kids!

LOL! I think it's hilarious that Nagin and Blanco are spending so much time in Texas!

And the President?

He's spending the night in New Orleans!

Sure is easy to tell who the doer is and who the blamers are.

I think they'll rue the day that they started the blame game.

" But officials tell me the administration was already putting together a post-hurricane timeline of every decision and action by the president and federal agencies that will show the White House on top of the crisis from Day One."

I'm still waiting for one Democrat from the Clintons to the DNC to Jesse Jackson to Pelosi,etc to document their efforts, pre Katrina, to help their base evacuate.
Nobody knew the depressed areas better than the Democrats and nobody owed those voters more than the Democrats.
The Democrats had a moral obligation to help their poorest voters and I think it's time they answered the question- what exactly did they do, to help their base evacuate ?
