It doesn't last though.

Without doing the math with dates, do you intuitively remember what administration was in power during 9/11? How about Katrina? Benghazi? Hurricane Andrew?

actual guesses:

W Bush, Also W Bush, Obama, and...Clinton?

Pretty close on the last one. It was the end of HW Bush's term in '92.

Kind of was hoping no one would put an actual answer in print so everyone reading this comment could do this thought exercise without being biased. I should have stated so. Mind deleting your comment?
