Let's start by firing their worthless mayor, and the state's incompetent governor."""

By all means- and THEN fire the head of FEMA. They were incompetent, along with mayor and gov., and accountability is appropriate for all of them. Michelle MAlkin- no BUsh-basher - has blasted FEMA's head. Conservatives should believe in accounatability.

Sorry, but you are wrong, they might have seemed slow, but the truth is that Governor Blanco and her staff have stood in their way at every step. They did not stabilize the civil disorder, and had to wait for the Arkansas National Guard to do it for them, they did not evacuate their citizens before or even in the 18 hours after the storm passed and the city was not underwater. They did not stage adequate supplies to hold them over until the federal response arrived.
It is amazing how much they have been able to accomplish under those circumstances, and dealing with a disaster that stretched across three other states. The fault is not with FEMA, but with the state and local governments in Louisiana. Just because Malkin is a conservative does not mean that she cannot be wrong, in this case I do believe she is wrong, and she is letting all of the crying by the panty-wads on TV effect her opinion, not reasoned thought.

They were incompetent

Utter rubbish and you're the only person on here who would make such a statment.

But, then, you hate all things Bush and American, don't you?
