I would just like to say that I think what the White House is doing by pushing blame on to the local and state governments for the disaster relief efforts is appauling.

I for one would wish that you guys would come out swinging and show exactly what the leaders in LA and NO did and have done prior to Katrina slamming into the coast, and what the Bush administration hasn't done. Show that they have done press conferences and photo ops while people were dying in the streets.

We are getting two different stories when it comes to who did what. FEMA and Homeland Security are lying to us. Please do not spin this in favor of the Bush administration, they need to be held accountable. It needs to be show that they did nothing but photo ops to make Bush look like a hero, a savior, why do you think the food, water and other supplies just so happend to arrive the "DAY" that Bush made a photo op tour?

This isn't a third world country, this is the United States, Americans are suffering and dying in the streets and all we are getting is excuses, more photo ops, and straight up posturing from the Bush administration.

For once, do your jobs and speak the truth, not the White House, Carl Rove, PR spin, please. I'm not asking you to come out and bash the President, all's I'm asking is that you go back to actual journalism and report on what went wrong and why. Many Americans in this country are tired of the lack of leadership from this administration. We are tired of the lies and lack of holding people accountable. We are tired of them blaming everything on someone else instead of their own incompetence. This has got to stop and you guys could get the ball rolling.

Someone needs to be held accountable, the director of Homeland Security, the Director of FEMA, and the President himself should be shown for what they really are, irresponsible.
