So whatyou're saying is that if there is a clueless moron running the city or state, people should have to suffer because of their moronic decisions. Thank you very much for your comments Ms.Blanco but you are still a clueless moron.
Here are TDubb's posts:

BOTH Haley and the gov of Alabama have had nothing but praise for Bush. Alabama gov. said that Bush called him twice a day ALL last week and asked what they needed AND were given everything they asked for.
I am sure you have read the actual timelines?
At exactly which point exactly what would YOU have done differently?
Come on. Tell me something. Stop spewing sophomoric nonsense all over my beloved Free Republic.
Hyperbole does not justify a takeover by the federal government of a sovereign state. The constitution is crystal clear on the relationship between the states and the federal government. The states do not need a reason to tell the federal government to butt out. The federal government only can say, "Yes, we'll stay out of your business."
I'm amazed at all the tear-jerker reasons people come up with to increase the power and domain of the federal government over states. And as soon as this blows over they will all go back to their fair-weather interpretations of the constitution.
Tensions color my relationship with Democrats and the mainstream media.
Here's a good place for you to start.

FEMA & MSM sites won't have the info you need to get up to speed. Read down the thread, cuz there are a lot of links & other info in some of the responses.
If you click on anyone's handle (name), you're taken to their homepage & there's a link to click on "In Forum" to view their previous posts. I came across this thread while checking out TDubb's posting history.
LOL!
You posted misinformation, which hardly qualify as "facts".
I can't stand that woman. Bush had to call her and TELL HER to get that city evacuated - the two idiots in charge were too dense to do anything without running to their lawyers.
Probably the reason they are blaming him so much now to direct the ire to Bush rather than where it belongs on the governor and mayor and the state that did not want to mend their levees.
NEW ORLEANS, July 22 (UPI) -- A major hurricane, with 130 mph winds and an 18-foot-high storm surge, would not scare 60 percent of southeast Louisiana residents, a survey found.
That would be a dangerous decision, said Jesse St. Amant, emergency preparedness director for Plaquemines Parish, because Louisiana's sinking coastline and levees no longer protect residents from a Category 3 storm.
The University of New Orleans Survey Research Center and the Southeast Louisiana Hurricane Task Force survey, released Thursday, also found many who evacuated during Hurricanes Georges in 1998, Lili in 2002 or last year's Ivan might not have traveled far enough to escape danger, the New Orleans Times-Picayune said Friday.
In 2002, an American Red Cross estimate found 25,000 to 100,000 people would be killed if a major hurricane hit the New Orleans area.
If people don't evacuate when directed by officials the number of casualties would be "beyond comprehension," according to St. Amant.
