Louisiana's Jefferson Parish is desperate for relief, but parish President Aaron Broussard says officials of the Federal Emergency Management Agency turned back three trailer trucks of water, ordered the Coast Guard not to provide emergency diesel fuel and cut emergency power lines.

Is this true? For what purpose?

To make people leave the city. The major this morning said no water would be given to those who wouldn't leave. I'm still trying to decide how I fell about it.

Letting people go back in now sure seems foolish.
