Thank God Bush took over. My gosh, those people were in dire straights and suffering under the hand of Blanco.
The MSM knows who's to blame for this screw up, and that's why they're on the attack. Had Bush not saved the day, those poor people would still be screaming from their roof tops. Nothing happened until he moved in, and that's pretty darn obvious to any one with a brain.
Wonder if that is what prompted Blanco-brain to say....martial law in my state...never!
The amazing thing here is that once the Feds take over the National Guard folks...the cost comes out of their pocket. As long as the Guard guys work for th governor...its a state expense. Having 5,000 guys out there on duty....is not cheap...and I doubt that the state fully understood this whole episode. Again, the governor isn't exactly a full-fledged leader...she is a politican. Her controllers probably went into a democratic reaction mode and thought that this federal martial law stuff wasn't right. Folks down there in Orleans do things different. Bottom line: I doubt that any governor will hesitate in the future to drag the Feds in.
