Politicizing Katrina

Reuters has gotten in on the act:
Wow. Fair and balanced? Unobjective? Sheez Louise. At least AP showed the pictures of the buses Nagin failed to utilize. Is Mark Egan asking anything about why they were not used? What makes this report even worse is the epilogue:
(Additional reporting by Kerry Wutkoski and Phil Barbara in Washingon; Mark Babineck in New Orleans; Erwin Seba, Paul Simao and Jim Loney in Baton Rouge, Peter Cooney and Adam Tanner in Houston, Matt Daily in Biloxi, Steve Holland, Charles Aldinger, John Whitesides and Eric Walsh in Washington)
Do all these contributors agree with Egan that not getting the people out BEFORE the disaster, AS BUSH REQUESTED, is the fault of Bush?
Sheez. Pathetic. With people like Egan and Reuters running with their pre-conceived attitudes, the people that truly did cause the bulk of misery in New Orleans will get by scott free and be left in control to make the same mistakes if another disaster occurs. And that is a lot more possible than people would hope to admit.
