Some people won't be satisfied until there is no existence beyond the federal government. The response to Katrina, while hampered by Blanco, was just what it should have been. I feel sorry for Brown having to take the kicks to the groin on this.
Nagin should have mobilized the buses to evacuate - that was the plan, after all. Blanco should have mobilized the National Guard and requested help earlier. But all in all, the response to Katrina wasn't that bad considering the massive and widespread destruction.
Brown seems to absolve Nagin in this interview.
The government should have been there to stop the hurricane. /sarcasm
