I don't blame him for the hurricane. Here's what I'm blaming him for.

Ignoring the Global warming that models suggest invite humongous storms like this one.

Presiding over the administration that drastically reduced the budget of the army corps of engineers for the region, despite detailed reports that they were not prepared for a level fiive hurricane.

Sending huge portions of the national guard (which we use for things like this) into a war of agression.

Having done nothing at all during the entirety of his presidency to reduce dependence on oil making this disruption in the market as damaging as it could possibly be.

Not going to New Orleans. Flying over it was strictly for the news. The airport is open to emergency flights and would have landed air force one. And don't tell me "What could he have done" because he's going there later this week.

I blame him for making the country and the world in which the hurricane took place weaker.

He has a major, national crisis on his hands now. He's our leader. Let's see how he leads.



And believe me, if I thought there was a legitimate way to blame him for the hrricane itself, I'd do it. In case you've missed it, I think he is a very, very, very, bad man. My consolation is, if the serious right wing Christians he pals around with are even a little bit right about the nature of gawd, he's going to hell. Me, I don't believe in hell.
