And the reason she did not deploy the NG as a "law enforcement" mechanism...as granted by her state constitution, was because she didn't want to be responsible for the deaths of "poor, black people" should confrontations arise.
From the beginning Blanco has treated this crisis as a "political" issue.
Whether it was her (or the Mayors) failure to declare mandatory evacuations (for fear of what happened after Ivan and the near miss), using the NG for deadly force...or even refusing federalization for her own political reasons, the governor has politicized this crisis from the start
Amen...spot on! Now the rest of the DNC and linberal/left are doing the same thing.
