"Mr. Marriott, or someone high up at Marriott got buses ready on Tuesday and had to get special permission from the governor to allow the buses in. They had to make more than one phone call to make that happen, but that is what they did."Well, there was some leadership in Louisianna after all, but it was at the corporate, not state or local governmental level...

Absolutely chilling. New Orleans is one of our favorite places to visit. Always stayed in the quarter and just loved to eat, walk and "people watch" during Thanksgiving week when the place was pretty mellow. I am so saddened and so d**n mad at the ineptness of the LA politicians. What a different story if someone like Rudy was in charge. Prayers for all the vicitms and thanks for posting this. God bless your friends.

Ugh.... shameful.
The Governor and Mayor should be strung up.

Goodness, what can one say after reading that? It's almost like the mayor wants some sort of attrition to happen before letting help in.

Oh dear....it wasn't me or my husband, but someone from my county...and the email was sent to me.
Sorry about the confusion.

This is horrifying.
I am ashamed that any city in our great country could sink to this level. Thank you for posting this email. It has the ring of truth.

IOW, we waited for help but none came. What a surprise. Put your life in the hands of bureaucrats, pay the price.

"She told us something very scary, on Wed when she was calling at about 10:30am, she actually (you have to know her to know that only she could do this) got to talk to a man with the Red Cross with trucks, supplies, etc in their trucks only awaiting the Governor to allow them to get in."
I'm beginning to think this was done intentionally to hurt our President! HOW THE HELL does it take 4 miserable days to get FEMA and the emergency group in...I don't get it!
To: Guenevere
... in their trucks only awaiting the Governor to allow them to get in. Nah, couldn't be the governor. It had to be Bush. He had the military at the border preventing relief and supplies from entering the city because he hates black people. (sarcasm)
