1. But who should step down?
Bush sort of took responsibility today, therefore he should step down. But then, I'm just a simple man who has been a Democrat for 47 years so what do I know? Voted yes btw.

6. Call TLC and get the CLean Sweep team in there
They all should resign - starting with Bushbot, to Turdblossom, Crashcart, and the rest of this Animal House administration. But we know it won't happen.

2. I think the question should be -
Should competent people (from the Clinton administration) step up ?

4. Interest Poll Question...The Worm Turns
Seems like someone wants to start "The Blame Game" (wasn't that a Boy George tune???)...and just getting Brownie's scalp isn't good enough.

You know it had to hurt meeester boosh to admit mistakes and push this guy out, but I also think people didn't do it soon enough. The fact he never fired Brownie and let him sneak away is pissing people, off, too.

The media appears to have its radars (thanks to some intrepid and persistant blogging) to cast an eye on the management structure at FEMA and all the cronyism that has happened there. They're also wise to Albaugh and his band of profiteers and I suspect we'll find out about all sorts of sweetheart deals.

I expect this regime to stonewall and attack any media-type who tries to expose a lot of the abuses...but the more they do this now, the less effective it is. While people aren't ready to become instant Democrats, they are looking at their own party and the motives of its leaders with a lot more scrutiny now...and that I think is showing up on polling and driving this question.

I went there twice and no little bubble comes up next to the choices.

7. Which officials? State or Federal? LOADED question.
People from the Fed gov should step down. Start with Chertoff, Cheney, the idiot and anyone else who sat on their asses and watched people die on the streets.
