Does anyone have a link to where Mikey Chertoff blamed the victims for...
their own fate?

I think it went something like "these people need to take some responsibility for their own fate". I should really learn to bookmark these things before they dissapear down the memory hole.

1. Today Show Sept. 1, 2005
"The critical thing was to get people out of there before the disaster," he said on NBC's Today program. "Some people chose not to obey that order. That was a mistake on their part."

You can probably find the transcript on their page. This was on Sept 1st.
