I do try to keep my emotions out of this discussion. It is something you have to do when you are dealing with what is a problem concerning physics and not morals.

Politics will creep into any big disaster. What the people on the ground need to do is not let it keep them from their tasks of dealing with the situation. Sometimes this is not easy and I am sure Jindle finally reached the 'If not me, then who?' point.

It is nice to see a politician really dealing with a problem and not caring what anyone thinks, though. I think that is called Leadership.
