I think that everyone in America should demand an accounting and a roadmap of what officials that are responsible in National Disasters are to do and when they are to do it. All the credentials of these officials should be scrutinized because these are lives that may be lost if they are not ready for prime time. We should be able to know if the Gov of our State will ask for help and will call for Martial law and call out the Guard. We must know if our county officials know what they are doing, have major plans and are going through regular drills etc. Clearly the leadership in the entire State of LA was not up to the job and probably incompetent. I know in my State and my County and City or Town are ready because we have been tested,time after time.

Interestingly enough there was an interview with a woman with 11 children who got out of the SuperSewage Dome yesterday. She stated that she had her bigger boys stand guard with her at night to protect the girls in the family. Sounded as though she set up some sort of rotation system so they each got some rest but also had to pull a shift on guard duty.

"Word is he told Blanco and Nagin to shut up."

Verrrrry innnnterestingggg. I suspect they relayed that to the Klintoons and/or the DNC and that may be why Witt is in there all of a sudden. Just a wild speculation on my part, but with these sneaky, slimey jerks, nothing would surprise me.

we were talking about that upthread - Blanco did this on orders from the Clintons, Witt is the Clinton point man on politicizing this against Bush.

I will again suggest my tin-foil theory - Blanco was told by the DNC to dropback on maintaining civil order in the first 24-48 hours, to make FEMAs job harder, so they could blame Bush for this.

"The pair spent two days in an attic, two days on an interstate island and the last four days on the pavement in front of the convention center. "

Hurricane hit Monday. Today is Saturday. That's 6 days. So their ordeal lasted 8 days?

More lib media math.

Who is the idiot that spread the awful (incorrect) rumours about cannibalism? He needs to be punished for that.
