LETS PLAY THE BLAME GAME
bear bryant once said that when you make a mistake you

1. Admit it.
2. Learn from it.
3. Don't repeat it.

Our elected leaders had their #1 three years ago in New York. Argueable their 2nd and 3rd with OBL and Iraq. NOLA had to make their top 10.

Do we really want to give these guys #4?????

1. They play the blame game better than anyone ever has.
Karl Roves "genius" is the ability to win playing this game. Unfortunately the game is won at the expense of peoples lives, at the expense of the quality of life for the working poor, and at the expense of truth.

This time truth needs to win this blame game!

White House Enacts a Plan to Ease Political Damage
By ADAM NAGOURNEY and ANNE E. KORNBLUT
Published: September 5, 2005

WASHINGTON, Sept. 4 - Under the command of President Bush's two senior political advisers, the White House rolled out a plan this weekend to contain the political damage from the administration's response to Hurricane Katrina.

<<snip>>

The effort is being directed by Mr. Bush's chief political adviser, Karl Rove, and his communications director, Dan Bartlett. It began late last week after Congressional Republicans called White House officials to register alarm about what they saw as a feeble response by Mr. Bush to the hurricane, according to Republican Congressional aides.

3. Yeah, let's BRING IT ON!
They know the truth ain't on their side this time. The fact that they are playing the Blame Game proves it!

4. Common - be fair - they have to still "learn" on the job!
It's only their first year of their second term!
