Default Is everyone going to blame Bush for hurrican

Ike?

some people are just stupid and yet I'm sure the media will blame the administration for these dipwads who stay behind in their homes. I love what Chertoff said:

Chertoff also urged people not to succumb to "hurricane fatigue," referring to concerns that authorities were overestimating Ike's potential impact.

"Unless you're fatigued with living, I suggest you want to take seriously a storm of this size and scale," he said Thursday.

Houston Mayor Bill White said he's heard that some people who live in areas under a mandatory evacuation order say they plan to stay home. He strongly urged against it.

"If you think you want to ride something out, and people are talking about a 20-foot wall of water coming at you, then you better think again," White said.

Contrast that to the Katrina debacle by the local authorities where people were stranded but had 400 buses under water because they didn't want the federal government telling them what to do.
