A much needed kick in the ass to the bureaucrats and incompetents.
82nd airborne, 1st calvary, 1st and 2nd MEU will be coming in to do search and rescue, and they will not tolerate thugs preying on the innocents.
Maybe he got a good night's sleep. Plus it's a beautiful inspiring day here in the metro DC area.

That's more like it. Send in the hardened troops - the real cavalry. Take over the city planning and coordination as if it was Kosovo. Sounds like the NG is overwhelmed, as well. Get those stranded people out!! There are 20,000 still at the convention center, and 2000 at the dome, according to AP. Bury those bodies lying around. These things HAVE to be done urgently.
I've never understood why pols get into congrats mode so quickly during a crisis. Each and every time, there are logistical problems because each event has unique difficulties. You would think they would learn to just thank the volunteers and to remind the public that there will be problems during first responder efforts.
