"Spunkets, are you saying that FEMA should have prepositioned their supplies IN the superdome?"

Or, the equivalent yes. It's also possible that FEMA should have insisted on using the buses the NO/LA plan called for and taken them out of the area, because the dome was severely lacking in facilities. Apparently no equipment, or supplies were present to improvise and prepare field expedient facilities either.

FEMA being in the disaster business should do better than the cokeheads, or the laymen that end up stranded on rooftops.

I don't think you understand the mission of FEMA. They showed forsight in staging close so that they were ready, knowing it was going to be bad, but it's definitely not their responsibility for stock the superdome before the storm hit.

The locals are responsible for that. Unfortunately the locals fell down on the job. How could FEMA have known the locals wouldn't follow their own disaster plan?

FEAM ain't in the rescue biz, or haven't you learned that yet?
