Damned if you do...

A moment, please, to appreciate the conundrum that Hurricane Rita presents to the Bush Adminstration. If they leap all hands to battlestations and do everything right this time, it's 'oh, suuuure, when it's your state and your folk, you can't move fast enough, but when it's a bunch of black folk...' On the other hand, if they screw up as royally as they did with Katrina, they're the gang who can't learn from mistakes made less than a month ago.

Holy schadenfreude, Batman! What's a lackluster bunch of in-over-their-heads no-brainers to do??
