31. It's sad that when we have a disaster or tragedy in the country,
everyone is more interested in pointing fingers, assigning blame and name calling than coming together to find a solution or offer support or assistance. It would be one thing if the government was literally doing nothing (as Bush did the first few days of Katrina), but that is clearly not the case.

The President is supposed to have a magic wand to miraculously fix anything regardless of the difficulty of severity of the problem.

And if Obama can't fix it personally, we should call in the Navy. OMG. What the fuck is the Navy going to do, exactly? When does the U.S. Navy become experts on oil drilling? Are you fucking kidding me? Because the U.S. Navy can do anything!! Their civil engineers and sailors are way smarter than the rocket scientists from NASA or the Nobel prizing winning psycists that are workong on the problem. The ignorance of some people is absolutely astounding.
