Nobody expects the President to prevent a natural disaster. What reasonable
people should expect from the President (especially one who ran on a
platform of "homeland security") is a competent, timely response to perhaps
the worst natural disaster to ever strike this country. They should expect
that he not wait until two days after the scope of the disaster became
apparent to end his vacation. They should expect that the Secretary of State
(who happens to be in charge of coordinating relief efforts from other
countries) not spend Wednesday evening taking in a Broadway show and
Thursday shoe-shopping. They have a right to expect that the head of FEMA
know more about the situation than a CNN reporter.

Wow!
What are the odds of two national disasters occurring during one
President's watch?
