Bush lies, responsibility dies

From his Sept. 13 press conference allegedly accepting responsibility for FEMA and other federal Katrina-response failures:
And to the extent that the federal government didn't fully do its job right, I take responsibility.

However, Department of Homeland Security Secretary Chertoff and other flunkies are still going around saying state and local officials are on the front lines in such situations.

In other words, Bush is saying that isn’t the feds' job, so he still doesn’t take responsibility.

And, until he officially disavows both the comments and the commenters, if necessary, he isn't taking responsibility.
