I like Ben Stein, but I don't agree with him mostly. Yes too much blame is going Bush's way, I strongly dislike the man and I'll say that.

But, man screwing with the enviroment has made this flood worse. The reason New Orleans is sinking into the sea so quickly is probably that the Missisppi was rerouted so that most of the silt goes straight into the gulf instead of building up around that area. Also, global warming was probably not a factor in THIS natural disaster but it does not mean it does not exist.

Many people would have loved to have left, but the problem is, they had nowhere to go and no way to go there.

Finally the restructering of FEMA into the Homeland security department seems to have caused some issues with it, since this is possibly one of the worst responses they've have had in an otherwise good history.

of course maybe I'm wrong
