Laying Blame At Our Own Doorstep

Washington has shifted into high gear in the blame game regarding the mess that the Katrina emergency relief has been, and Bush has decided he's going to look into it himself.

Well that pretty much ensures the investigation's report will not lay blame at the President's feet. Where's Harry S. Truman when you need him?

Yet, there is plenty of blame to be had all around, and none of us should consider ourselves immune. Thanks to Jay at Black & Blue Heart for so poignantly reminding us of that.

Meanwhile, TJ at Also Also offers concrete proposals being made by Democratic leadership to get us through this crisis.

Of course, if you haven't done so yet, please consider giving to a Katrina relief fund, such as the one at the Red Cross.
