In watching some of this coverage over the coarse of the last week there sure seems to be a lot of folks making comments on the line of why don't you save me first. I definitley understand their position but the S&R people are few and those needing help are many. I don't believe the feds are to blame here, but the local and state officials ought to be smacked down and served up. I saw a school bus barn with probably a 100 buses parked in it with water up to the roof tops ... why were they there?! Should have been hauling evacuees the day before. What good are evacuation sites without supplies. Why weren't the major roads build up higher than lake level? The race question is just plan ignorance with the scope of this disaster, the city and region is predominantly african-american it's a question of which family of african-americans to save first.
GW declared the region a disaster area before the the storm even made land fall. Mayor of NO and Governor of LA ... here's your sign!
