Yeah, me too, but it also showed a cynical reality: for some reason we can only hire idiots. I feel that, as a country, we've forgotten how to hold people accountable; what responsibility means. Mr. Bush totally screwed the pooch on WMD, Iraq, Abu Ghraib, amongst other issues yet people still voted for him. Now hes' repeated himself with Katrina. Did we expect more? Why? And his administration is famous for admitting no wrong doing and holding nobody accountable - and it was rewarded for this behaviour by our fellow Americans. It's as if nothing is your fault if you're a leader; the exact opposite of how it should be. We are CYA to the extreme - all we require is some plausible way to deny responsibility and you're off the hook. It's shameful. (Disclaimer: local officials failed too and we need to hold them accountable, but the unlimate responsibility is Mr. Bush's) ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| Find out how CFTicket can increase your company's customer support efficiency by 100% http://www.houseoffusion.com/banners/view.cfm?bannerid=49 Message: http://www.houseoffusion.com/lists.cfm/link=i:5:172719 Archives: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/threads.cfm/5 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/lists.cfm/link=s:5 Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/unsubscribe.cfm?user=11502.10531.5 Donations & Support: http://www.houseoffusion.com/tiny.cfm/54
