"A decision by the Bush Administration [sic] to rewrite in secret the nation's emergency response blueprint has angered state and local emergency officials, who worry that Washington is repeating a series of mistakes that contributed to its bungled response to Hurricane Katrina nearly two years ago." (-- August 8 WaPo article by Spencer Hsu.)
Hmmm... the article also notes later that the Bush Assministration will let the state, local and private sector partners get their say during a 30-day review when the draft is formally released later this year. The Cheney School of Gummint Management at work again!
