3. That's fabulous...they're told not to go in before Bush and make
him look worse...and then he turns around and tries to make them the scapegoat!

7. I know Landrieu was there during the week, went to the dome
and her brother was going out in boats on rescues. I believe the Governor was there for part of the week as well.
