In my opinion, the time and place is CNN, MSNBC, FOX news network, ABC, NBC, CBS, every major news source in the country. The remarks were made during a benefit concert and I still believe that you attract more flies with honey (ie. can raise more money with a hopeful, positive, sympathetic attitude, rather than an angry one). Numerous people have made similar comments on all of the cable news shows, and I agree with the comments.
I think there is no excuse for not having provided a means of evacuation for all of those people. I think there is no excuse to not have had food and water ready to go in by Tuesday. I think there is no reason to have had hospitals trying to operate under those conditions. This was botched big time and lives were lost because of it. We can only hope that we've learned from this one and things will change in the future.
ETA: And I don't buy the photo op propaganda of Bush's visit to Mississippi where he's hugging a young African American girl. How convenient to show that after those comments were made. "See, I care about African Americans, I even hugged one" being the message.
