Nice comparison but Andrew doesn't compare to Katrina in aftermath conditions. With Andrew local and state officials acted quickly and response was not hampered by a flooded disaster zone and most of the highways leading in were not blocked or destroyed (helicopters need fuel and the military needs food and water which means trucks and air transports). With Andrew locals maintained peace and order.
The military response to Katrina has been miraculous by any standard and anyone who says otherwise is an idiot.
