"The administration's response to this crisis has been swift and surefooted."

Bullshit. They didn't even twitch until yesterday. A lot of stuff should have been going on before Katrina even hit shore. That was the IMPACT plan that got ditched. They did nothing but sit around with their thumbs up their butts.

Yeah, FEMA under Clinton planned for a Cat. 5 hitting New Orleans and started to upgrade the infrastructure to deal with it. But, then under Bush, the upgrading was stopped. That pretty much puts the blame at his and Congress's door. No two ways about it.
