From your Saturday, August 28 link: "With forecasters warning of a category five storm, the president made sure the federal response would not be delayed by already declaring emergencies in Mississippi and Florida just hours after a similar declaration for Louisiana. Such declarations make federal aid available to assist with disaster relief, but they are rarely made before a storm even hits."

I'm especially pleased to note, the President declared Louisiana a national disaster before he so designated Mississippi and Alabama. And glad to have confirmed, the Louisiana call for mandatory evacuation came after the President's declaration. Thank you very much.

You're welcome. The Prez is no dope and isn't afraid to do what is needed. Thank God.
