All the President’s fault according to Blanco

Former Louisiana Gov. Kathleen Blanco offers a GOOP conspiracy theory in an interview with MSNBC’s Chris Mathews.  She says Bush was getting slammed “nationally and internationally” for his handling of Katrina during those early, desperate days after landfall and an executive decision was made to shift the blame.  “(Bush’s) political office decided that another scapegoat was necessary.”Â  Blanco says the White house even leaned on The Washington Post to run unflattering stories on its front page of her.  Come on now Kathleen!  It’s a little far fetch3ed to think that the President is in cahoots with the newspaper that continually has criticized the President.  And there is plenty of blame to go around; including that directed at Blanco.  You can see the former Governor’s comments below.
