Yes, who appointed a DIRECTOR. If the director is not adequate then remove him and get someone who is. If you want to take the 'ultimatly responsable' route then you have to keep going up the chain and back in time to include every president, every directory, even the writers of the constitution. Why stop at Bush. I'm going to wait till this is over to start applying blame. I'm going to first focus on what I can do to help out those I know and those I don't know and when it's done I'll worry if it was Bush's fault or not. The job of a CEO, which basically is what Bush's job is, is to appoint people he believes can handle the situation, get reports on the situation and make what changes are needed to the plan to handle the situation. We have no clue what Bush has been doing other than what we see in the media. Has he been talking with other countries about aid? Has he been sleeping the whole time? Was he even informed as to what plans were put into effect. If he failed in his job to govern those he appointed, then yes, he has some responsability for their failures. But lets wait till we get a full story. I don't trust the media to tell me that he did nothing as the media lies. But then again, so does the government.
