After all the hype, the storm was a bust. 26 people died, so what? When the stories all come out I'm certain that most of them died from terminal stupid.
Even after the hurricane became a moderate storm the media treated us to pictures of Barry manning the disaster response center in DC. Regardless of the severity of the storm that is NOT presidential. It was a joke, a 'B' flick out of Hollywood. Was his appointments so poorly qualified that his presence to personally oversee the response to this non-event required he micro-manage the response?
All involved with this fiasco have been left with egg on their face and their only response has been, "Well, it could have been worse."
The most damning evidence came from NHC itself which was still reporting Irene as a hurricane long after the eye-wall had collapsed and the winds subsided to tropical storm strength. Have we reached the point where weather is politicized too?
All the evidence was there that the public was being 'played' Neither the government, their scientists, nor the press can be trusted anymore.
