There is much criticism that should begin going around. Bush deserves some, no doubt. However, after 9/11 Bush was accused of exploiting the tragedy for political gain because he was out at the wreckage hugging the workers and families and doing some digging himself. Criticism of that type serves no purpose. That being said, should Bush have been a bit more inspiring in his interviews and speeches? Most certainly. He has finally started to a bit today.
Hastert deserves criticism for his statement. Feuls hopelessness and is completely irresponsible.
The Governor of Louisiana should be criticized because martial law has yet to be declared. This is exactly what martial law is for. I'm sorry, but those thugs in NO who are shooting at rescue helicopters should be shot. I make no apologies for that statement. Under martial law, they could be.
I was going to criticize the government - and Bush specifically - for not opening up the numerous military bases in the south to house the refuges. However, I just heard that they will be doing this.
EVERY governor of Louisiana deserves criticism, as it has been talked about for 50 years how a huge hurricane could break the levees and cause exactly what has happened. How can a better plan not be in place?
The cover up regarding the use of the Superdome is sickening. How can you house 10000 people (or whatever) in that place with no electricity and not let them out? Rapes, suicides, and unsanitry conditions that I simply cannot comprehend. Whomever is responsible for that should be fired or resign their elected position at very least.
Some government official - I think it was the head of homeland security - said the government did not foresee the massive criminal activities that are taking place. Did not foresee them? If you cannot foresee that, you are stupid and should resign.
This is just off the top of my head. I'm sure as time goes on I'll think of more.
