Listening to NPR this morning, Rcktredglare's jaw hit the floor when Fearless Leader Bush made a statement to the effect that no one anticipated that the levees protecting New Orleans would fail.
WTF? That's one of the main concerns in all of the pre hurricane run up.
Of course, failure to anticipate has always been a hallmark of this administration. Hypothetical President Rcktredglare would have already been back in Washington, would have National Guard and other resources mobilized before Katrina struck. Even if Katrina had completely spared New Orleans, even if it had weakened to a category 3 storm, it was still going to do a lot of damage.
