FEMA's job is to find people who need help and render that help.

No, it's not; they don't just ride around looking for wherever people have gathered and dump food and water; it has to be staffed and guarded, especially down there.

If you don't think so, you should hear the doctors who were in the SuperDome and left and are now refusing to go back.

So we agree, FEMA can't find people and render assistance.

Look, I thing Nagin is doing a terrible job. NOPD, worse than terrible, as a force, though I'm sure individuals stand out. Blanco is totally useless. But FEMA is blowing it too, and there's nothing wrong with saying that.

If your emergency plans depend on everyone going where you expect them to in an orderly fashion, you just aren't very familiar with the American people. That's not what we do. And if your plans need that, they're bad plans.

This is the real world, this is what has to be dealt with.

When those dirty bombs start going off, do you think this kind of organization is going to work?

We need real plans. We don't seem to have them.
