I didn't read this report - yet... However, we lost our house and all our belongings in Hurricane Andrew. After the storm hit, it took at least 5 days for the cavalry to get there. That was during the Clinton admin and I don't recall everyone screaming for his head. Nagin had a plan, he had the means to get those people out. What he didn't do was ACT! He has NO leadership ability whatsoever. He was elected because of the color of his skin and his ability to win popularity contests, NOT BECAUSE of his suitability for office. His consitiuents DIED because of his incompetence! Louisiana has one of the MOST corrupt political organizations in this country. How many times are we going to have to pay for those levees? Because Clinton was NOT president during it. Seems like an unlikely thing not to remember if you lost your house and belongings..... |

outsydr I've already said I'm sure the Feds could and should have done a better job. What you have asserted is that the majority of the blame for that debacle is going to be laid at the feet of the Federal government.
No I don't think so, the majority of the blame is going to be laid at the doorstep of state and local authorities, as it should be. They are the ones closest to the ground and are the only ones capable of doing the job. They failed their constituents and as the reports come out this is going to become more and more obviouse to all fair minded folk.
I do not doubt the MSM will try to place the blame on the Feds but it is only going to make the MSM and all those who attempt to spin this look bad.
