I am not prepared to concede, at this early point in the assessment of the local/state/federal response, that the feds were late or short at all. They may have been, and they may not have been. Most in this forum would prefer that no blame be ascribed to anyone at this stage, but that compassion and action go forward to bring as much relief as possible in this situation. It was not the right that started this blame scenario, but it having begun, we cannot retreat from it. I think there are enough unknowns for everyone to hold fire at this point.

Agreed, but I do know that the Feds could have alleviated the situations at the Convention Center and the Superdome sooner. They could have also cracked down on the looters and armed thugs who were hampering relief efforts.
