Early this morning, I believe it was FOXNews I heard report New Orleans was under mandatory evacuation, but soon after that, I flipped to The Weather channel, and their anchor said the Mayor was about to announce a mandatory evacuation.


When the big blow is over, when the blame game starts, the Mayor will blame all problems on anyone and everyone but himself and his administration.

The mayor and to a lesser extent the governor dropped the ball here.

The thing is to help people, not apportion blame. That being said, they clearly did not rise to the occasion.

And if it weren't for Max Mayfield and the President neither the Mayor nor Governor would probably have issued the evac orders.............I truly hope both are investigated.......what they did (didn't do) borders on the criminal.

You're right.

I heard yesterday that he was called by the Director (I believe it was) of the National Weather Service to really explain how serious the situation was and that they thought he should start evacuations of NO.  Later in the evening I heard him asked about that by WWL  he danced all around it and finally  said he would make the decision about mandatory evacuations early in the morning.  He couldn't have been warned any better than that.
