The Democrats are mad at Bush...what else is new!

Lawmakers angry at Bush over VA information leak.

Man, they'll blame him for anything, like he went up to this VA employee and said, (insert typical Bush/Texan swagger) "Man, heh, I want you to go out there and release this here VA information-type stuff. You got that?"

I mean, do they really think that President Bush is to blame for some underpaid IT guy losing his laptop? It really sucks that it happens, and I'm sure they'll be consequences for the vets whose information was on that laptop, but its not as though Bush, or any other government official, came to this guy and told him to lose the laptop. If anyone is to blame, its the VA for having weak security controls. As far as I know, though, the VA is a quasi-non-governmental organization, and thus, Bush should be even more insulated.
