Show me the link where FEMA was,"gutted", Show me their budget year to year? Was it the same gutting that has been done by the sequestor?

And as usual, FEMA is typically after the fact, not first responders.
You are correct. There were Democrats like Nagin that screwed up. But just because you are a Democrat doesn't mean you have good administrative skills. I would say I know quite a few Democrats who would be poor administrators. But then there are others like Bill Gates, Steve Jobs, Warren Buffet, etc. who are actually quite good administrators.

Being a good administrator is a personal trait. It doesn't have to do with your policy views.

The policies that exacerbated this tragedy were conservative policies of cutting all forms of government, sans the military. This was true for FEMA which did have its budget slashed. And here is the link you requested for your viewing pleasure:
