Unforeseeable!

"I don't think anybody anticipated the breach of the levees" - George W. Bush, four days after the flooding of New Orleans.

The footage does the president no favours, the BBC's Justin Webb reports from Washington. It shows plainly worried officials telling Mr Bush very clearly before the storm hit that it could breach New Orleans flood barriers. - BBC story, via [livejournal.com profile] ambitious_wench.

Am in a bad mood due to other developments today, so I'll refrain from commenting here; anyway, the story speaks for itself.
