The truth is that all people are like this to one level or another. It's just that organizations tend to represent the lowest common denominator so this is what comes out.

A child can be in denial. A parent cannot. A crewman can be in denial. The ship's Captain cannot. A citizen can be in denial. The elected leadership cannot. And yet the symptoms in New Orleans strongly suggest leadership that was in denial. Denial is not acceptable behavior anytime anywhere one is in charge.
Denial murdered seven Challenger astronauts. Shame is that same denial then killed seven Columbia astronauts. Do you find denial acceptable human behavior for your pilot while inside a passenger jet at 35,000 feet?
