That idiot Blanco did worse. And while she made Katrina a far bigger disaster than it otherwise would have been (and simultaneously ended her political "career"), I didn't have heart attack (I had seen her in action before, and she was pathetic).

No she didn't. And once again, your memory has conveniently failed you.............you forget that ice intended for NOLA ended up in ID and MD; that trailers were left rotting in Arkansas instead of used in NOLA; that the medical ship left port several days after the disaster and did not get to NOLA until 2 weeks into the disaster; that while NOLA drowned, Bush was raising $$$ in San Diego by playing his frigging banjo.........the list goes on and on, and had nada to do with Blanco.

Governors have a responsibility to put weak, inexperienced presidents in their places. But when the governor is herself incompetent, as Blanco was, she should step aside and let the adults run the show.

Governors do not have any such responsibility except in your imaginary world.
