Actually, he responded in reaction to the fact that he was universally blamed for the response to Hurricane Katrina.
As head of FEMA, it was obvious that he was unqualified for the position and did a terrible job in reacting to a disaster, but shuffling the blame all on to him is some definite scapegoating. There were a lot of other problems and governmental failures that contributed to the amount of death in New Orleans.
I guess the question is, do you think he was responsible for what happened, or should we have expected this to happen when an Arabian Horse Judging Commissioner is put in charge of the Federal Emergency Management Agency?
