Granted, there are local bosses who are being equally slimy, and people in the chain of command all the way up who are dropping balls. But at the end of the day, who's the top dog of the pile of FEMA and their operations in New Orleans? FEMA being under the authority of the Department for Homeland Security, a cabinet-level department? Whooooose cabinet?
The buck absolutely without a doubt does NOT Stop Here with this president. That's why it doesn't stop with anyone else all the way down--there's nobody at the top holding the line. It's all politics.
A fish rots from the head down. NOLA smells a lot like rotten fish these days.
