Bump. However. If the gubmint was really thinking things through and truly planning for disaster they would have had 5000 airborne armed military or asault troops in zodiacs in there by Tuesday along with a couple million bottles of water dropped into the flood. A sealed bottle of water floating in sewage is still clean. Screw the blame game but obviously our disaster preparedness sucks HARD.

Yeah, Shep should share all the damn water in his truck then call his producer to get him more if he was so concerned. Every one reporting had the advantage of being able to communicate and see the big picture. I think all of them could have done more instead of just bring us pictures.

Crymyny, put down the mic for a couple hours and help with the problems. Everyone could see that Nagin on down was cutting and running.

unfortunately, the Constitution might preclude the use of regular army troops in such a situation

"A sealed bottle of water floating in sewage is still clean."

I don't know if sealed bottle of water *will* float. Or an MRE for that matter.
