Dr. Shane Posted October 26, 2005 Posted October 26, 2005 It isn't in this story but I heard on the radio today a quote from Gov. Bush saying, "Blame me if you want someone to blame." Blame Florida, Not FEMA, Gov. Bush Says </font><blockquote><font class="small">Quote:</font><hr /> Gov. Jeb Bush took the blame Wednesday for frustrating delays at centers distributing supplies to victims of Hurricane Wilma, saying criticism of the Federal Emergency Management Agency was misdirected. "Don't blame FEMA. This is our responsibility," Bush said at a news conference in Tallahassee with federal Homeland Security Secretary Michael Chertoff, who oversees the agency. <hr /></blockquote><font class="post"> </font><blockquote><font class="small">Quote:</font><hr /> "We did not perform to where we want to be," Bush said. The governor added, however, that people seeking relief should have done more to prepare for the storm. "We did not perform to where we want to be," Bush said. The governor added, however, that people seeking relief should have done more to prepare for the storm. "People had ample time to prepare. It isn't that hard to get 72 hours worth of food and water," said Bush, repeating the advice that officials had given days before Wilma hit. <hr /></blockquote><font class="post"> Quote Pastoral Family Counselor...
