There are people in the anti-Bush camp that won't take no for an answer - that much is for sure. As a reasonable-minded liberal, I ask reasonable-minded conservatives to ignore these people in the same way that we try to ignore the likes of Bill O'Reilly and Rush Limbaugh. Shrill accusations are tiring from every viewpoint.
Reasonable people aren't blaming this entirely on Bush. However, you'd have to be a fool to not place a large part of the responsibility on him. As the leader of this country, he's supposed to be sure that things get done - and it's obvious that the correct things weren't done.
And speaking of O'Reilly, one of the Bush Admin's biggest yes-men, is saying something even mildly critical, you know they screwed up. Direct quote from O'Reilly: "
President Bush was 24 hours too slow in reacting to the disaster. Why? I don't know. And the head of Homeland Security, Michael Chertoff, seemed clueless for days."
The same question that you asked could be posed to Bush-defenders right now. Will you ever admit he's wrong? What exactly would it take for you not to forgive him?
And please, if you're going to post about FACTS showing that Bush was not to blame, please cite sources for the rest of us.
