As George Bush's infamous for once saying by mistake, he said, "Mother Nature is a terrorist. " So it was with Katrina - the devastation of it, when you think of bombs being dropped on people and then you think that a hurricane could come through and do that, the same amount of damage, it was a wake-up call in a lot of ways.
