"She said that the Federal Emergency Management Agency still has not signed a contract with the company hired to handle the removal of the bodies, Houston-based Kenyon International Emergency Services."

Wan't her complaint last week "Bureaucracy?"

Can somebody please tell me what is the role of the state governor when there is a bunch of dead bodies in her state? Is she for real? She needs to give Nagin a call in Dallas and see if he can manage by email.
Can she not open a phone book and start calling all the mortuaries to start helping out? Oh yeah, all their hearses are parked next to the buses. My bad.

Her re-election campaign speech: "Elect Blanco. Tan, rested, and clueless."

By isolating body recovery to the time when the water has been drawn down about half-way, it becomes a much more visible activity.

This way the Democrats will not be able to accuse "W" of hiding the bodies.

It is getting a little crazy, for sure.

NO WONDER so many in NO did not leave and did not make plans to leave and did not know how to leave and did not believe it would be necessary to leave and on and on ad nauseum.

They all believed "daddy"-the nanny federal government, would take care of everything.

It appears their leader, the governor of their State, believes the same thing.

Talk about trickle down, as in trickle down total reliance on big daddy, from the gov, tocthe mayor to the people. Sad.

Think if it was a relative of yours...would you still feel this same way?

I would not be STUPID enough to stay where a cat FIVE hurricane is going to hit, me and my family would be long gone, none of my relatives would be laying in the street or on the sidewalk, we have common sense.

According to FNC this morning, the reason FEMA wasn't picking up the DBs was that LA had told them last week that they, LA, were in charge of that. Guess Blanco hadn't gotten the memo. Three guesses why she issued that conciliatory statement about FEMA a few hours later...?
