Here's 34 deaths I guess the liberals can't blame on Bush.
Nursing home owners facing homicide charges
BATON ROUGE, La. – The owners of a New Orleans-area nursing home where 34 patients died in Hurricane Katrina's floodwaters were charged with negligent homicide Tuesday.
The owners of St. Rita's Nursing Home in St. Bernard Parish “were asked if they wanted to move (the patients). They did not. They were warned repeatedly that this storm was coming. In effect, their inaction resulted in the deaths of these patients,” Louisiana Attorney General Charles Foti said.
Mable B. Mangano, owner and administrator of the nursing home, and Salvador A. Mangano, a co-owner, surrendered and were jailed.
Foti said his office is also investigating deaths at a hospice in New Orleans.
I would love to see a reconciliation when all is said and done of who could have been saved and who was most directly at fault in each case. That includes those that had the opportunity to leave and didn't in which case the blame would lie with themselves. I can tell that liberals are dying to pin the whole death toll directly on Presdient Bush. My brother-in-law perhaps unwittingly does it in this post, although he acknowledges that the President did the right thing in accepting responsibility for federal mistakes, whatever they may have been. We need to know how many deaths truly could have been prevented by a faster response from any of the levels of government.
