Ergo, since he didn't understand the big picture he wasn't doing his job.
Your insistence on this point has got me thinking.
I think the officials in Louisiana deliberately kept truthful information from FEMA
They kept our the Red Cross, they kept out the Salvation Army. Who else did they keep out?
We also know that NOLA DHS chief Ebbert gave the AP (and thus the people of New Orleans and thus every one in the world) incorrect information when he said the flood waters were rising slowly and the levee breach would be fixed quickly. [see Is T. Ebbert [NOLA DHS chief] responsible for delay in large-scale response to levee breach?
WHY did the democrat dominated State and local governments fail to do ANYTHING correctly, before, during, or after the storm?
WHY did blanco not accept Bush's offers of Federal help, THREE DAYS before the storm hit, like the Governor's of MS and AB did?
WHY did nagin totally disregard his own cities plan to use transit and school busses to get people without transportation out of town?
WHY did mayor nagin totally disregard the FEMA natural disaster manual, which outlines evacuating nursing homes, hospitals, and others, not using FEMA's manual in the leasdtt! WHY did the LA. DOHS deny access to N.O. to the Red Cross AND The Salvation Army, then blame it on the Feds when it was their decision?
WHY did mayor nagin empty the convicted felons from the jails, to the streets, creating in one fell swoop the worst looting disaster in American history, then blame the National Guard?
WHY did nagin fill up the Super Dome and the Coliseum with over 50,000 low income people, making NO provisions for them for a day, much less three, placing the burden to feed them directly on the National Guard before the storm even hit?
WHY was nagin using federal funds for a marina and gambling boats, not for improving the levee system?
WHY didn't Governor Blanco use the TENS OF MILLIONS of federally offered funds to use on the levee system, and never even applied for any matching funds for the little bit the State did do? Do you have answers for any of that? Because all of that squarely sits on the corrupt democrat dominated LA government. Face it. The left side of the aisle failed miserably, and as usual, it was Conservatives and the U.S. military that has to come in and do it right and fix their screw ups. I'll tell you one thing. New England and California are lucky they don't get hurricanes, or we'd get to see how screwed up their governments are some day.
