Are Moore does is show his ignorance is assigning responsibilities and

signed the disaster declarations last week before Katrina hit the Gulf

full authorities regardless of where he happens to be.


It doesn't really matter whether the President has any direct
"responsibility" for the situation in New Orleans - this happened
on his watch, so he's responsible for how it's handled. He may have -
and in fact probably does - delegate _authority_ for emergency
management, but you can't delegate responsibility. (Ask any US Navy
commander - who's career often depends quite literally on the 19 year-
old that's 'driving' his ship not running into anything.)
