Why LIWOP? (Let It Worsen On Purpose)
My theory is this: Bush and Cheney are literally fighting for their life (or to stay out of jail).

Plamegate might lead to prosecutions under the Espionage Act (which was the law that got the Rosenbergs EXECUTED in 1953), and violations of the Geneva Conventions might lead to war-crimes trials in The Hague.

Given these prospects, it would make sense for CheneyBushCo to formulate a general plan. Basically, they need to implement martial law sometime between now and 2008 in order to save their lives and/or stay out of jail. So whenever a crisis comes along, they try to "tilt" it in the direction of general mayhem.

Their actions after Katrina look like they are TRYING to make the thing escalate out of control, so that it goes from being a flood-relief issue to a law-enforcement issue.

The more chaos they sow, the closer they come to their hypothetical goal of declaring martial law. Does anyone else share this (admittedly rather tinfoil) theory?
