Blanco's letter to GW was about asking him to declare a state of emergency in Louisiana; however, she never requested military assistance. By her own admission to her press secretary between TV interviews, and while she didn't know the cameras were rolling, she said: “I really needed to call for the military and I should have asked for it in the first call.”

The first time she asked for help to the federal government... “we need all the help we can get,” she assumed --and this is something she kept saying over and over again-- the federal government was going to do her job. The job of a governor isn't based on “assuming” someone else would do her job when things get tough, but to be prepared for a situation like this just as the governor of Florida is prepared when hurricanes hit his state, and we don't hear about shootings, pillage and rapes without their own government officials acting drastically upon them as opposed to Louisiana's officials whose whining and complaining were the better part of their jobs.

There is enough material on this link to impeach her.
