"How did it come to pass that an opposition's measure of a president's foreign policy was all or nothing, success or "failure"? The answer is that the political absolutism now normal in Washington arrived at the moment--Nov. 7, 2000--that our politics subordinated even a war against terror to seizing the office of the presidency." - Daniel Henninger - WSJ 11/18/05

Nowhere to Call Home - New York Times

Nowhere to Call Home - New York Times: "When the most powerful nation on earth cannot find long-term housing for its own hurricane victims in almost six months, there is no other word to describe it."

It is a terrible shame when the state of accountability, when after six months people effected by Katrina cannot begin to help themselves after post-hurricane support. Time to vacate 4,500 plus hotels rooms.....

Does the editorialist have anything to say about the numbers assissted and on their way to a new life?
