Hurricane Katrina - Where to Point the Fingers

Friday, September 9, 2005; Page A25

In less enlightened times there was no catastrophe independent of human agency. When the plague or some other natural disaster struck, witches were burned, Jews were massacred and all felt better (except the witches and Jews).

The three current favorites are: (1) global warming, (2) the war in Iraq and (3) tax cuts. Katrina hits and the unholy trinity is immediately invoked to damn sinner-in-chief George W. Bush.

I like this column. The people who don't want to play the "blame game" are people who are most likely to BLAME!!!

Meanwhile I applaud G.W. for accepting reponsibility today. FINALLY someone stands up and accepts responsibility!
