As I recall, the government response to hurricane Katrina was so wrought with incompetence that it may be regarded by history as one of the biggest administrative distasters ever. In fact I wonder if it would have been possible for the residents of New Orleans to file a class action law suit against the government(from the mayor of the city through the state government all the way to GWB. Now I know this would not be the easiest of cases to win, and getting dubya and his cronies to show up to a law suit would be even harder than it would be to get them to show up in front of congress, but considering the massive amounts of gross negligence on the part of every level of the government I would say that there are grounds for a law suit. Finally, if this did happen, what then? and of course what if they won?
