This FEMA Director is on MSNBC right now lying through his teeth. There's a disconnect between him saying "the food and water are being distributed right now" and live cameras showing nothing of the sort.
Yeah. I'm sure those three or four live cameras provide all the coverage you need to make that assessment. The guy is obviously lying. But then, I guess several reporters are too, because the ones who have been in or around the Superdome have said people are getting food and water. And reporters further away from the Superdome are showing people recieving food and water. I also heard earlier today that there are no buses showing up at the Superdome today, and no National Guard troops there either. But later live cameras showed a very significant presence of both. Maybe we all need to realize that we are not getting the whole picture watching breathless live reporting from cable news.
He was just informed, this afternoon, that there were 3000 people in the Convention Center. FEMA is likely getting the supplies there right now.
Was FEMA supposed to just know where all these people are? FEMA works through state and local governments. Where the hell is Kathleen Blanco? She ought to quit right now and hand her office over to a man, or at least somebody who doesn't cry every time they go on television.
Remember, those live cameras belong to the MSM and a reporter on Fox just said that they have tunnel vision. They really do not know what is happening except in the few spots where they are stationed.
I would hardly call the FEMA director a liar based upon the words of the reporters.
