Bush accepts responsibility for response to Katrina

(CBC) - U.S. President George Bush said Tuesday that he takes responsibility for the federal government's flawed response to Hurricane Katrina.

"Katrina exposed serious problems in our response capability at all levels of government, and to the extent that the federal government didn't fully do its job right, I take responsibility," Bush said.

"I want to know what went right and what went wrong."

Bush was asked how prepared the U.S. is to deal with a terrorist attack given its track record with the hurricane.

"Are we capable of dealing with a severe attack? That's a very important question and it's in the national interest that we find out what went on so we can better respond," Bush replied.
Last week, Bush said he will lead an investigation into what went wrong with the hurricane response.

Bush's admission was the closest the president had come to finding fault with any federal officials. Some people at the federal level have pointed fingers at state and local officials for being unprepared to cope with the disaster.

On Monday, Mike Brown, the embattled director of the U.S. Federal Emergency Management tendered his resignation. He was replaced by R. David Paulison, who pledged to place a priority on finding permanent housing for the tens of thousands of people displaced by the hurricane.
