Kathleen Blanco dilly-dallied as 1,000 people died

Louisiana's failed governor Kathleen Blanco is busy lately, trying to shift blame for the Hurricane Katrina fiasco on President Bush.

I don't forget history, and nor should you. Here's a reminder:

Gov. Blanco said President George W. Bush called and personally appealed for a mandatory evacuation for the low-lying city, which is prone to flooding.

Speaking Sunday, Bush said that he "cannot stress enough the dangers this hurricane poses to Gulf Coast communities."

"I urge all citizens to put their own safety and the safety of their families first by moving to safe ground," he said.

WDSU meteorologist Dan Thomas said the dangers from the hurricane cannot be overstated.

"I've told some people in the newsroom, I think this is going to be the scariest moment of your life," he said.

Blanco screwed up. Bad. Now she's pathetically trying to shift blame for this fiasco.
