The Anger is Palpable

People are mad - from red states and blue - wondering how we can spend so very much money on government support disaster programs and bullshit about homeland security and tens of thousands of the poor and vulnerable were left to figure out how to get themselves out of New Orleans.

Six days into it, and things are barely any better.

I've heard numerous Republicans, on screen and off, offer up this, "I am ashamed to be a Republican right now. Pure shame. It's our people in the government and they've done wrong."

I mention this because it struck me strangely to hear party affiliation brought into it. Then I stopped to think.
