A handicapped man slumps in a wheelchair while a relative sits nearby after their rescue by boat from floodwaters in New Orleans, September 1. Scenes like this ripped the heart out of many Americans while the MSM failed to demand from city and state officials answers as to why their own evacuation plan wasn't followed. Why weren't city buses and other transportation resources used to evacuate these people before the storm hit?

The Mayor made no effort to protect the lives of citizens by safely evacuating the jails in advance of the storm. Prisoners from New Orleans Parish Prison sit on a freeway overpass, September 1, after their jail was evacuated by authorities.

The Mayor in New Orleans doesn't have authority over the prisons. It's the Orleans Parish Criminal Sheriff (who is elected) and then the Attorney General of Louisiana. Where is the Sheriff? - - - who knows, I haven't seen him once - maybe he left with his family!
