It is a truth universally acknowledged that anything that FOXNews bobbleheads accuse Democrats of is something of which it can easily be shown that they themselves are guilty.

Case in point: the difference in response by FEMA between Katrina and the Southern California wildfires last week. While there is some truth to Mara Liasson's statement that simply the Bush administration has learned to avoid the bad p.r. they got after Katrina (although not completely), there's no denying that, as Juan Williams points out, with the wildfires, it was Bush's base that was affected. However, leave it to Bill "I get everything wrong, but I have a direct line to the White House" Kristol, to claim the difference lies in the fact the political affiliations of the respective states' governors, and anyone who suggests that there is any politicization just doesn't want to admit how they were failed by their Democratic elected officials.
