Jesse Jackson Blasts Bush Over Katrina Aid

Newsday reports that Jesse Jackson has criticized President Bush:
Jackson questioned why Bush has not named blacks to top positions in the federal response to the disaster, particularly when the majority of victims remaining stranded in New Orleans are black: "How can blacks be locked out of the leadership, and trapped in the suffering?"

"It is that lack of sensitivity and compassion that represents a kind of incompetence."
We thought Jesse would be there.He goes wherever a camera is.But,could we have guessed President Bush being bashed for blacks "locked out of leadership" positions,in the middle of a flood disaster?
