Well I think the Governor is significantly responsible for the looting to the degree that we've seen it.
She should have called for Marshal law immediately. She should have sent in the National Guard the morning after the storm with shoot to kill orders and announced as much via low flying helicopters with loud speakers.
Then this mess would have been contained from the get-go.
She was weak kneed when it counted and this is the result.

I understand your zeal, the looting shows the growing base character of so many of our citizens. It is disgusting, and no one should be afraid to say it. But I'm afraid if those orders of yours would have been made, a lot of the wrong people, along with the looters, would have been shot.

Absolutely. Getting New orleans settled down will be like retaking the city.

All that is true but from her(blanco's) standpoint by waiting, it allowed the MSM/rat press to place the blame on GW, remember it's always Bush's fault.Compassionate lot, the rats.
