""The devastation is greater than our worst fears,'' Louisiana Gov. Kathleen Blanco said in a news conference. "It's totally overwhelming.''

Another liberal leader! Must be related to a Klinton or Kennedy. What a weak person. It is totally overwhelming? What an a$$hole! How freekin motivating. Why not call for Auntie Em?

Have you ever personally been through a hurricane that severe? I have and the severity caught everyone offguard, because Celia had been predicted to be a category 1 hurricane with 90 mph winds. When it started to hit land it contracted so that instead of having 90 mph winds it had up to 180+ mph winds. I understand what it is like to have a the effects of a hurricane exceed what was thought to be the worst case.

Paleo..our government has spent billions of dollars 'studying' the plight of NO in just this scenario for over 20 years...lol(in a moment of dark humor)..for years the LA politicos have ignored the studies and even used the monies for 'other' things..all the while they ignored the realities of the danger. LA is a cesspool of democrat incompetency and corruption in state and local government. We are seeing what they are capable of and so far it is the same as it always is from democrats...:"SEND IN THE FEDERAL bureaucracy ....SEND IN THE CLOWNS" Don't worry..thank the God lord Bush in in office right now..so the 'Clowns' are a dying breed in government..but look for them to muck up the mighty mississippi with utter bs in the coming days.
