Bush Appoints Himself

Bush has made an appointment to head the investigation into
what went wrong with last week’s response to Katrina. The head of this
investigation is none other than the President himself, leaving one to wonder
the kind of conflict of interest that lies in that decision.

One of the critical components that failed was FEMA’s
response. It is a failure that is widely known and talked about. The failure
lies within its leader Michael Brown, who before his appointment was unemployed.
Why was he unemployed? He was fired from his former job, head of the
International Arabian Horse Association for supervision failures. Crooks and
Liars
has more on that story.

This past week’s lessons are simple – we can not allow
partisanship to come in the way of corrective action. The failure we all
witnessed is something that could directly affect any citizen of this country
and it is an outrage.

Bush investigating a failure in his administration? Why not
just let Karl Rove investigate the Valerie Plame leak or Bill Clinton could have
investigated the blow job in the oval office. This failure needs NON
PARTISANSHIP attention. The President will surely fail to meet that most
important criterion.

Bush has already made it known that he doesn’t feel there
is a failure in his administration, so he will be looking to point blame at
those in the lower levels of government. When an entire system breaks down, you
don’t blame the entire team, you blame the coach.

This is an outrage of epic proportions.
