yesterday devoted quite a bit of screen time to slagging Katherine Blanco, the Governor of Louisiana in respect of her decision to release all documents pursuant to the Hurricane Katrina disaster.
They reported (on the basis of no cited evidence) with the sort of lip smacking relish one associates with Fox News, that the Governor's aides were "concerned" with her "image" in various e-mails.
It was to say the least, an unsubtle partisan hatchet job.
Meanwhile, Today's Globe asserts that that Karl Rove was after Blanco to federalize the National Guard and declare martial law and ghod only knows what else.
This would be the same Karl Rove who has been calling all democrats traitors nigh these past five years. If this is the guy Blanco was dealing with before during and after the hurricane then no wonder the whole thing spiraled into catastrophe.
Does the President really expect any easy dealings between his most partisan aide and any incumbent Democrat?
No the man's very inclusion automatically puts the entire crisis on a partisan &agenda driven basis and thus, thousands drowned needlessly while Bush's government blustered and dawdled.
