When they were interviewing people entering the Superdome Sunday, they talked with a young Australian tourist. Everything, of course, looked simple enough at the time, as he smiled.
I've wondered about him, so I googled "australian tourists." There are plenty of articles, but I made the mistake of reading this one:

"When Mr Bush visits New Orleans, he may have to answer increasing criticism that his Administration took money from a program to reinforce the levee banks to fund the war on Iraq.

The former head of the US Army Corps of Engineers, the agency that handles the infrastructure of the nation's waterways, said the damage in New Orleans probably would have been much less extensive had flood-control efforts been fully funded."


That's the part of the article that got to me.
