We have some grim news out of Warren Reports about the economic impact of Katrina. Elizabeth Warren has this post about what even the experts are saying about how the new bankruptcy law will affect hurricane victims (although Jon Lackow notes that Sen Chuck Grassley thinks everything will be just fine with the bill the way it is). And Kenneth Baer wonders where we could get the money to pay to clean up and rebuild the Gulf Coast.
Todd Gitlin looks at how Republicans play the blame game, and Mark Schmitt notes what Bush had to say in 2002 about accountability
From our Supreme Court Watch, Jack Balkin explains why it pays to stand up to Bush; and at America Abroad, Ivo Daalder looks at what Obama has to say about Katrina. Also, Matt Yglesias explains why Dems are still looking for a consensus on national security.
