You know, for once, I agree with you. Having been born there and visited there, I can tell you how corrupt the city is. I'd blame Clinton before I blame Bush because he was President when some of the decisions for the levees were made, but honestly, this town was destroyed because of the mayor and governor. If the mayor really cared, he would have made his own evacuation plans and then explained it to FEMA so they didn't have to figure it out on their own. To quote an editorial, "To blame the President for NO is like blaming the CEO of an airline for the crash." You need to go down the chain where the real disaster has been going on for years.
