 If you were a Democrat, you'd probably get hammered for it. There's an irony there. You've got a Republican president overseeing the creation of a large, new department. But I don't think he'll get criticized for it. |
| It's a rare moment when you get a housecleaning like this. It could presage a strong turnaround for an agency that's been adrift for years if not decades. |
| It's hugely embarrassing for the sector, ... I don't believe there is any malfeasance here. But . . . the notion that the Red Cross simply cannot track where the money is going feeds into this growing concern that charities cannot be trusted to spend their money wisely. |

| My experience is that young people will put up with a low salary and almost self-finance for the chance to learn something new and make a difference. |
| My reading of the tea leaves is that they've put [Cheney] out to defend himself, and if he succeeds, fine, and if he doesn't, fine, but that he's really on his own now, isolated by the departure of [his chief of staff, Scooter] Libby. |
| Our research shows that Americans are over-confident in the ability of government to respond. |
| Our research shows that Americans are over-confident in the ability of government to respond. But there are many highly probable scenarios that involve an almost complete breakdown of social order. Katrina showed us that all those structures we depend on can be swept away. |
| Sacking the president isn't the panacea for what ails the Red Cross. |
| The basic question is, will the public listen to the government in the future, and that's a critically important question. It is entirely possible this could have a significant impact on the public's willingness to listen to their government, police, fire and charity officials in the event of another catastrophe in another city. |
| The departments and agencies will not accept you or embrace you until they're told that, in fact, there is a president-elect. So nothing can be done right now formally, and very little can be done informally by way of getting information about what agencies are or are not doing. |
| The paradox of this vice president is the things that made him so valuable in the beginning and so important to the president - his willingness to take the lead and be a strong visible advocate on some issues - have come back to haunt him. It's almost like everything that's bad in the administration has come back to stick to Dick Cheney . |
| The person at the top matters most. You can shuffle the deck, but the president is the ace of spades, and he's not going to change. |
| The president is less and less influential, and his approval numbers are still low. A lot of these members of Congress are saying, 'I need to stand up on my own'. |
| The problem there is if you want to give direction to the bureaucracy to stop doing certain things or to start doing new things, you've got to have that neck in place to transfer the signals from the brain -- the president and the cabinet -- down to the career layer and the body. |
