The more the Pres. can keep Blanco out of the loop, the better it will be for us down here. Hurricane Katrina was the worst thing to ever happen to Louisiana... Blanco is the second worst.
I would like to know what the adjatant-general is doing. He is the actual commander of the LA National Guard. Blanco is a third wheel right now.
My heart goes out to you. AMD and myself were going over memories of working a disaster. It's obvious that things are broken at a State level but it's maddening to watch the media try to play it differently.
Your mayor acts as if she has never read a disaster plan in her life. "I'm making this up as I go along" may have been a cool line for an Indiana Jones movie but it is a script for tragedy in real life.
Hurricane Kathleen seems worse.
