that's very interesting samcol.

but it begs the question?
Why did the US federal government fail in this situation?

Was it because it had to do something and couldn't or because it had to do something and wouldn't?
And if it could have, but didn't, and the man at the helm who refused to make the critter crawl believes in a particular political ideology mandating a limited role of federal government in the lives of its citizens...

well then what exactly is being proven here...what exactly indeed...

EDIT: oh good one, Yakk. I guess your quote answers my question. I must have opened this thread and left it sitting around without refreshing for like an hour because I didn't see your post!
