JUST SEND IT.

I agree. You know what you are dealing with regards to these so called leaders. Blanco has been reading the mad magazine manual when she should be reading the disaster manual.

Don't assume she will request anything but a bath.

"JUST SEND IT."

In Chertoff's news op he was asked about this. He said certain legal issues applied. However, now that they have changed some things ("breaking the mold" on how they respond and who has authority) it sounded like they will have more freedom to do things.

It sounds ridiculous to hear of "legal issues" now. Perhaps a better term would be "constitutional" issues. I imagine that things are worded as such so the feds can't interfere with the state whenever they want to.

Quit your bitchin

“I have determined that this incident will be of such severity and magnitude that effective response will be beyond the capabilities of the State and the affected local governments and that supplementary Federal assistance will be necessary.”

Governor Blanco’s August 28th letter to the President through FEMA
