"Does anyone on this board defend Bush openly lieing to us?"
I do! I do!!
Seriously, there's a large cohort of people that everything out of Bush's mouth is/has/will have been a blatent lie/corruption/start of the end of the world. I take no criticism from this cohort seriously, and that's not to say I don't consider criticism of him at all.
Michael Brown, if he indeed was a scapegoat of the administration, was as much if not more so for his opposition. He was a bridge connecting his failures directly to Bush, what he did was the fault of the administration for appointing him. Now your making him sound like an unsung hero.
In my eyes it's a pretty simple matter. This was a natural disaster of unseen historic preportions, it's not hard to come to the conclusion that NOONE really anticipated that. Not surprising that mistakes were made from the local to the federal level. Hell, if anyone anticipated what happened, not one single person would have died, because everyone would have left town.
