Ya gotta laugh when the presidential candidates run around blaming the “government” for it’s failures when they are indeed part of that government. New Orleans is still a mess. The Gulf coast is still a mess. You’re in the Senate McFriendy….. have you done anything to fix that thus far? I don’t think so……….

Sen. John McCain on Thursday blasted the Bush administration and all levels of government for the failed response to Hurricane Katrina in New Orleans.

“We know we didn’t have the right kind of leadership … where government agencies were getting information from watching cable television rather than have a flow of information,” McCain said during an event at Xavier University in New Orleans.

“It was not only a perfect storm as far as its physical impact … it was a perfect storm as far as the federal, state and local governments’ inability.”

“Never again will there be a mismanaged natural disaster,” he said, later assuring the crowd that “it will never happen again in this country, you have my commitment and my promise.”
