Has the veil been lifted from the eyes of the American people? Probably not, but there are more that are seeing the light. It turns out that George Bush isn't the person so many thought he would be. The events in New Orleans exposed many of the patterns of the Bush administration. Some of the patterns: appointing cronies to jobs for which they are not qualified. Reacting to problem situations with press releases and photo ops instead of fixing the problem. Denying that anything bad is happening or that anybody on his watch did anything wrong.
