Why didn't New Orleans city housing codes require lifeboats so residents could escape danger? Lots of cities require fire escapes.

Why didn't Dan Rather do a report on New Orleans's precarious position in these recent years of increased hurricane activity?

New Orleans Geography

The levee system that has been built along the river, coupled with the canal system to keep the interior of the city dry, prevent the land from being replenished by the annual spring floods. As a result, the land will continue to sink until eventually there will be nothing to stop the waters of the Gulf to rush back upon the fragile land.

You can't fool Mother Nature

Do you really think Dan Rather cared about anyone but himself? LOL! Liberals ONLY care about themselves and when they feign concern it is ONLY at YOUR expense and politically motivated.
