Yes. As a past resident of New Orleans, I can safely say the best and most damning story would be to follow the money that was intended for the planning (why not hurricane shelters? not even a bank of porta-potties for the superdome or convention center for when the electricity failed? why no buses for those they KNEW could not drive out of town?) and the upkeep of the levee and pump system? Congressman Billy Bob did a nice article on the graft surrounding the pumps (alone).

The one thing that needs to be investigated won't be investigated--and that's the influence of the generations of welfare families never taught to fend for themselves--unless it's to rob, mug, or use dope. THAT I lay squarely at the foot the 'Rats.

The only legitimate hurricane plan for a city that lies below sea level and is surrounded by water is: everyone get the hell out!

Everything else is t**s on a boar. So the question is, who should be ultimately responsible for getting the people out (at least those unable to move themselves)?
