Meanwhile Congress still hasn’t gone after William Jefferson, a man with cold cash who used National Guard troops to escort him to his house to get some $$$ in the Katrina aftermath.
And no one, to my knowledge, has ever explained just where did the money go that was paying for the auxiliaries?
As a Katrina survivor, it galls me that Bush was blamed for the “federal response”. The people to blame are Nagin & Blanco (dumb & dumber). Nagin refused to issue the mandatory evacuation til noon Sunday-(Katrina hit 6:10 Monday morning) b/c he was worried about being sued by the hotels & restaurant owners. Blanco refused to order in the LA National Guard immediately to follow the orders of the DNC & embarress Bush. (so people were forced to wait another 2 days for help).
I’ve always told people Nagin & Blanco should be sued in class action for negligent homocide.
