is this:
"The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers said Thursday that a lack of funding for hurricane-protection projects around New Orleans did not contribute to the disastrous flooding that followed Hurricane Katrina."
That seems to be pretty straight forward.
The articles also points out that "Funding for these projects has generally trended downward since at least the last years of the Clinton administration. "
So again I say that the article you cite is invalid and you attempted to assign the blame to Bush where it is unwarranted. Bush does a lot of dumb things but it is a sad thing to try to assign blame to him for this.
