In any event, the logistics of responding to such a large scale disaster make it impossible to have the equipment, material, people and supplies there instantly from the feds in any case. That will almost always take 72+ hours for such a large disaster.
The Federal government did well. Brown, who despite his background did excellent last year with the several hurricanes that hit Florida and gained invaluable experience that could have been used here...he was used as a scapegoat and that was one thing I did not like.

There was no need for another scapegoat.. we already had the real deal in Blanco and Nagin.

Exactly. Brown was a scapegoat. He was far more experienced than the media claimed. He became a FEMA employee in 2001, and worked for FEMA in several responsible positions prior to becoming director in January 2003. Since becoming director he organized the response to 165 federally declared disasters, including more than a dozen hurricanes and tropical storms. Another point: the hit piece on Brown by Time Magazine has been thoroughly discredited as yet another example of MSM Creative Journalism.
