I am so afraid Bushco is going to get away with their neglect. With the General speaking out on it, perhaps not.

I don't think they will be able to fully escape blame on this one. There are just too many open facts (levees, FEMA response) out there that will make it virtually impossible for them to completely escape accountability.

Even some Republican's on the Hill are criticizing the federal response.

If history is any guide, they will get away with it. Having spent six years in the Navy, the complete lack of accountability in D.C. makes me ill.

Between the greater and lesser infinities sleep the dreams undreamt.

I agree...just saw a poll stating that 47% Americans agree with Bush's response so far. All he has to do is pick up a bull horn and the number will probably go up to 55%.

When you unpack the numbers on Bush's response to Katrina, approve-disapprove numbers were
All 46-47
Dems 17-71
Indep 44-48
Repub 74-22

The ABC poll had only 520 respondents. Check out SurveyUSA which has polled 1200 people daily since August 31. Bush's personal approval numbers for his handling of the disaster are at 38% approval, 55% disapproval, 7% living on the moon (no opinion.)

.......everyone who watched is there:
