Having it both ways

Now here's an interesting poser, from Luke in Australia:

  1. Bush, through the director of FEMA, FOX News, and other surrogates, is pushing the spin that the people of New Orleans brought this disaster on themselves by NOT evacuating the city.
  2. But Bush is also pushing the spin that no one could have known the disaster would be THIS BIG, so it's unfair to blame Bush for not preparing adequately for the disaster.
  3. But if no one could have known the disaster would be this big, then why should we have expected people to evacuate the city?
Hmmmmm.
