A bunch of things such as havving a better evacuation plan,

People chose not to leave, even when they had free travel. so much for that part of your plan.

plans for communications,

Wiped out. Next part of your plan, please?

and pre-staged supplies, etc.

They were there, and hundreds of thousands of people have been eating and drinking *since day one* because of them.

We're now five days after the hurricane and significant federal aid just began arriving.

That's just simply a lie. 250 shelter sites have been up and running even *during* the hurricane and since... and are taking pretty good care of anybody that isn't shooting at them.

Oh please. There were a lot of people with no ability to leave prior to the hurricane.

Emergency services are capable of setting up communications nets almost immediatly. It's what the guard is doing now.

They were there, and hundreds of thousands of people have been eating and drinking *since day one* because of them.

And yet many places are just now getting supplies. Tens of thousands of people at the convention center had no food or water until yesterday.

That's just simply a lie. 250 shelter sites have been up and running even *during* the hurricane and since... and are taking pretty good care of anybody that isn't shooting at them.

You mean like in the Superdome, which is now full of human waste, and in which there have been numerous stories of attacks and rapes?

I'm not sure you are watching the same news stories the rest of us are.
