"Seems to me that some have forgotten that the order to evacuate NO was not given until the PRESIDENT called and urged the mayor and Governor to give it!"
Big thing for people to remember.

Yes, and the Mayor of NO and Gov should have known that there were many poor people in the NO area that rely on public transportation. Why the he!! didn't they send busses around to provide evacation for them??? Fox just showed a ton of school busses under water - had they been used early on - many people would have been out of the city and the situation wouldn't have been as bad as it is now.
