First, I don't believe you are being irrationally emotional... your emotional reaction is very reasonable and rational. My personal reaction to this is all the more acute because a very dear friend of mine is so personally close to this disaster, through memories and loved ones ( ... )

I think there's plenty of blame to be passed around the table. And a lot of people who deserve the heat in a few months. Right now, I agree.

Clarification:
I think Bush deserves some blame; he may have made sensible and reasonable decisions, but tough. If I'm in a job where I make reasonable and sensible decisions that go pear-shaped, I'm going to expect some share of the blame.

However, I think there's plenty of blame for the governor, the mayor, FEMA, FEMA management, and a host of other people.

I just think it's the sort of thing better sorted out in January.

See my reply to Joe above. I agree, January seems like a reasonable time to me.

In fact, thinking about it, a December or January investigation and hearing would probably enable us to see constructive changes before next years Hurricane Season.
