"The president needs to address this TODAY -- DIRECTLY. He needs to come out and lay the blame where it is due, and point out that the facts are the facts, and the attempts to make this humanitarian tragedy into a political game are reprehensible."

Ain't gonna happen. That is one of my sources of frustration with the president. He will NOT stand up to these people and b*tch slap them into a little bit if humility, when that is what is most desperately needed. We've been playing nice for far too long with these traitorous, socialist malcontents who are daily costing lives here and abroad in the name of "equity," "civil rights" and "peace." They can kiss my @$$. Either be a part of the solution or STFU, get out of the way and let the grown-ups handle it!

WOW, that one really worked you up. I think maybe we should
have SweetLiberty go ask Landreau just what does she mean.
I'd have to put my money on SL in that catfight.

We are on the same page liberty. Regardless of anything else the Pres or his administration says or does, unless they start publicly rejecting this blatant RAT attempt to spin blame away from themselves, the perception of weakness sets in and blame follows to the Republicans. This is the time for the Republicans in general, and President Bush in particular, to allow themselves some righteous anger and set the record straight. Day by day, or hour by hour or minute by minute if necessary. I am, as you obviously are, fed up with the turn the other cheek mode we always find ourselves in. While the public is watching we must keep the record straight. Later attempts at logic will be lost once the RATS and MM regain control of what gets on TV. OH, I also think threats to the Pres call for more than an apology. Jail time and lawyer fees should be applied as they are to all of the rest of us.
