Op-Ed Columnist - Paul Krugman Blog - NYTimes.com

Op-Ed Columnist - Paul Krugman Blog - NYTimes.com: "The truth is that Bush did as terrible a job fighting terrorism as he did responding to Katrina — who would have thought that Osama would still be out there, making videos, 7 years later? But on the terrorism front, and even in Iraq, the administration could invent a reality that impressed the public.
When Katrina struck, however, everyone could see the reality on their TVs.
So what happened with Katrina wasn’t that the administration started to fail; what happened was that for the first time its failures were visible to all."


He had Limbaugh, Fox "News" and every other swinging dick "conservative" Republican spinning what the public could not see, after Katrina...not so much.
