What would the Republicans do if Barack Obama took time off from campaigning to head down to Mississippi and talk about the federal response to Gustav? The Village would crucify him. We'd hear how Obama was being nothing more than presumptuous, arrogant, just another uppity Negro who was above his station. "He's not in the White House yet! How dare he!"
But John McSame is a war hero who is stepping above politics now to help people in the path of Gustav, and isn't using this to his political advantage. Why are we seeing more of John McSame than President Bush right now?
You'd almost think McSame was President right now.
UPDATE: McSame certainly seems like he's the GOP's point man on Gustav. Let McSame own the failure.
