It's because of this....what was done here is criminal.
Hassert and Frist came out today and said there would be a combine joint House and Senate investigation
Whether there will be hearings or not .. I don't know
Yet again the 'Rats make their bed, and then refuse to lay in it.
Nevertheless they are going to pay a price for the finger pointing and blame shifting. Less of one, granted, as elections are more than a year away, but I can't believe Joe Average isn't seething (or being sickened) by their outrageous rhetoric. Most Americans -- who aren't political partisans -- expect public officials to cooperate, reach-out and work together at a time like this. The blame game can wait till people are safe and rebuilding is underway.
Bush is smart enough to understand this. Even when he has to roll over or work around incompetents and idiots like Blanco and Nagin to get the job done, and even when they prove to be backstabbing ingrates, Bush will still maintain every appearance of genial cooperation.
But Bush is just a dummy, right? That's what the 'Rats still appear to believe. Funny thing is the smarter the 'Rats get, and the dumber Bush gets, the more elected posts shift from the blue column to the red. Eventually the 'Rats will get so smart they'll cease to exist altogether.
