Left Behind

Over at Daily Kos, "Hunter" writes eloquently on the inadequate Federal response to the disaster, and the stirrings of discontent from inside the mainstream media. Listen, we're all aware that this is a unprecedented disaster that overtaxed the system, but it is a disaster that was anticipated for years, a disaster that we saw coming, had days to prepare for, and saw unfold on our televisions, while the bureaucrats coddled one another in technobabbble and had meetings to discuss the formation of task force teams to assess the ongoing situation. To make excuses and goin into spin mode is not going to cut it this time. What a disgrace.
