The only alternative, I think, might have been to go to the 5th DCA for an emergency order to allow the feds to interceed.

Someone with standing would have had to bring a suit, but that would have meant someone within the state of LA doing it. The feds couldn't do it for them.

I really wish we had a tape recording of blanco's telephone conversations with the feds. They would be "special."

Oh man, I can only imagine! I'm sure most of the conversations had to do with getting the federal checks cut as fast as possible.

Seems the Mayor decided it was to his good, to release his taped phone call to Fema - just in case we were to think he was weak and incompetant . . .or worse. And the Media duly played the same (one) call all week.

Surely there were more telling phone calls that might explain more fully. . .what was going on. . .
