You do not even have any facts as to how many lives were lost due to the feds not rushing in to solve the disaster immediately. Would it have comforted you if hundreds or thousands of lives of federal first responders' lives were lost due to gangs, looters, etc.? Do you not value the lives of FEMA officials, rescuers, military, volunteers AT ALL?
You seem so obsessed with placating the left, that you have no interest in the implications of your arguments.
It has nothing to do about whether people care or not. The people who matter are the victims. There should be no political calculation.

Let's not be absurd. The facts will come out about the number of lives lost. First responders should not be in danger. That is my point. As soon as the first Coast Guard chopper was fired upon, the Feds should have gone in to insure proper security was in place. As a veteran, I value the lives of the military, rescuers, volunteers, etc..

I have no interest in placating the Left, but I do believe that we need to learn some lessons from this experience. The initial federal response was not as timely and effective as it should have been. My interest is to be ready for next major disaster/event. You are serving our side very well by mindlessly saying that no mistakes were made by the Feds and all the blame rests on the Governor and Mayor.
