..it is an indication that she refuses to relinquish power.
The fact that she will not...is typical of a demolib who will eventually be responsible for even more deaths.
People are now choosing to remain in homes that not longer are able to support life without consequences. (viral infections will become rampant)....undoubtedly in the end her refusal will be proof of her guilt.

From whatever appears to be sticking out of his head, I'd say he was an AFTER victim of Katrina..

The real emergency is having Blanco as governor. She's been less than unhelpful; she's actually made the situation worse through her inaction.

The Federal Government should just go ahead and declare martial law.

This is an enormous scandal that needs to be exposed. While screaming for the feds to "do something" they deliberately impeded the feds. I can't see no reason for this except gutter politics that killed people.

Let's set this straight now that we've seen the Governor's State of Emergency Proclamation at http://gov.louisiana.gov/Press_Release_detail.asp?id=973 and discredited the article posted, but there's still so much more fun to find on the Office of the Governor's website and this thread should remain.

IE: The below Executive Order interesting too. "Now where did I put those busses? Better say something before those FReepers give some damn fool pictures to Drudge."

Yes Haley Barbour of Mississipi, and Gov Riley of Alabama allowed this to happen by declaring disaster BEFORE Katrina hit.Blanco has yet to do it.
