I am sorry the thread did not progress as you wished but there have been many people on the thread who simply refuse to acknowledge the success of the evacuation.

Secondly, I find it interesting that people are all so willing to condemn local officials in Louisiana but not willing do so for the officials in Mississippi.

The Difference between the two sets of officials are their party. The similarities between the two states are that too many people died in both.
