Democrats seek political gain from Katrina
"Republicans have accused Democrats of seeking political advantage in criticising the administration's response."
Of course they are! Has anyone accused the Republicans of seeking political gain by attempting to manage the situation sensibly? I mean, are today's political parties so sophisticatedly (is that a word?) petty that we can expect the Democrats to accuse the Republicans of seeking political gain from Democrat criticisms, by suggesting that they are only interested in political gain rather than solving the problems? (read it again, I had to when I wrote it). Can we imagine a political system where an opposition party watches 10,000 people die in an affluent Western country and says 'Good job guys' with sincerity? Is anyone who suggests the situation has been mismanaged trying to attack the Republicans and heartlessly make gains against them from a tragic event, when they should be concentrating on the humanitarian issues?
I liked politics when it was simple and direct.
