Ah, what a delicious predicament:

"This is the Katrina administration"

SurveyUSA says Bush is stuck in a "can't win" dynamic: Much of the public thinks that the government hasn't done enough to respond to Katrina, but Bush loses support among his base if he tries to do too much more. "The more cash President Bush throws on the fire, as compensation for what some see as an inadequate initial response, the more it antagonizes his core supporters," the pollsters say.

It's almost Greek, isn't it? Like Prometheus? Or Tantalus?
