I liked how he asked "Did the tsunami victims have to go thru a formal process to ask for help? Did the Iraqis ask us to go over there?" Then he continued "I'm probably gonna get in trouble for this..."

This is about to get real ugly. According to this Wash. Post story, the Bush administration asked Louisiana's Gov. Blanco to allow for the federalization of the evacuation process the Friday before Katrina hit (Monday). Of course, other fed officials have said local evacuation was never their responsibility so who do you believe at this point.
Still the apparent delay in the federal response, in comparison to hurricanes Ivan and Andrew, et al. is suspect
