I'm not going to defend some moron whom you saw on TV, and I'm not going to say that five years of wetland protection and restoration would have left New Orleans dry. But the fact is, the Bush Administration has been looking the other way on that shit, and the reason you worry about it is because sooner or later this day comes.
