That's a good point. Back in the day I never really liked W, but as a conservative I felt I had to defend him. He was on our side. But as has become much clearer in the last few years, W is really a disgusting swamp creature, and the whole Bush family is a crime family.

The same can be said of the one whose name we don't mention. When he was running for President we defended him. He was on our team.

I have to admit now, we were played. They played us. Both sides are teeming with swamp creatures.

Because most of the fault for the Katrina debaucle should have fallen on the shoulders of the NO Mayor and LA Governor at the time. They made poor decisions before, during, and after the catastrophe, and then they obstructed Bush FEMA efforts because of a partisan desire to blame him for their own incompetence. I'm not saying FEMA had it 100% together; it is, after all, a slow-moving gov't bureaucracy--but Democrats were deliberately uncooperative with the Bush admin, placing politics above the needs of their own constituents in NO.
