That's why we have a Coast Guard. People better knock off bashing the Navy.
I agree. And they ought to knock off blaming the Feds. Technology is great, but it does take time to move things where they need to be. Imagine if this had happened 20 years ago and how long it would have taken to get relief supplies in there. But at least it would not have been broadcast quite so broadly.
BUMP The Coast Guard has been quietly doing it's job and has rescued over 4,000 people...while not being there far too late in a scale way too small of course. Which is why the media doesn't report stuff like that.
