4. They didn't have a "Hell Yes" but
I voted anyway.

Still, at 84% saying "yes"..people who saw it unfold on tv, I would imagine.

5. "specific government officials " does not necessarily mean Bush.
Of course that's how they frame the question.

6. Another bullshit poll, no specification and choices on that
specification. This means squat, says nothing except to allow them to choose to which government official they will allocate the percentage.

7. Hard to believe it isn't 100%
But maybe this will be the numbers in the new "Bush's approval rating" polls...

8. let's pretend for a moment that this was a state institution
say this was a hospital for the mentally ill, and say 20% of the people there died of thirst or hunger as a result of neglect. There would be no state where there would not be an outcry or an investigation. Okay,
some of the casualties were from the initial hurricane but New Orleans
was made more vulnerable by two of GWB's actions, 1) the redirection
of moneys for the levee projects and 2) the reallocation of National Guard Units, then the problematic behavior of FEMA, denying help, denying doctors access to the city, denying water from Walmart, preventing aid to the city until Thursday. These actions have directly
resulted in deaths of U.S. citizens, I cannot believe that Federal
officials will not be held accountable. The mayor and the governor
did everything by the book only to be lead on a merry dance by
Washington bureaucrats.

10. I'm not voting in this.
If it goes "Yes" they'll spin that it means the local Dems.
If it goes "No" they'll spin that it means Chimpster.

No vote.
