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.

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.

I've been watching these people at the convention center on TV for two days, I find it hard to believe no one knew they were there.

That said... I'd rather be glad if help is ~really~ coming than curse it for being late. But these people, in the absence of any aid or news, are quickly coming apart.

My god, now FEMA WANTS people to die, along with the President, and they are all lying??

Hysteria rules here.
