Does the top brass hang you out to dry even if it’s not your fault?

It's not the imposed crisis itself, but how you react to it - that's the heavy burden of leadership.

Bush got it for Katrina, and now Obama's getting it for the Gulf oil fiasco.

now Obama's getting it for the Gulf oil fiasco.

So who is gonna relieve Obama of command?

Looks like the military and civilians have very different procedures. In the military they can relieve you of command and disgrace you even if it is NOT your fault. In Civilian/Political Service you can cause a mess directly (like Obama is doing) and nothing will happen to you.
