I saw a brief clip of Nagin on the news earlier and he was saying the communications were terrible and he could not get ahold of the Feds to send buses. Of course we all know Nagin had plenty of buses.

We can't find any evidence of a request from the city or from the state to FEMA to get supplies to the Convention Center," to which Nagin replied, "With all due respect to Secretary Chertoff and Mr. Brown, I don't understand how anyone in authority with this type of crisis could say that they were not aware." that was not the question you crackhead, answer the question, did you request for supplies?

"With all due respect to Secretary [Michael] Chertoff and Mr. [Mike] Brown, I don't understand how anyone in authority with this type of crisis could say that they were not aware."

It was not a matter of being aware, it was a matter of proper procedure and delegated responsibility. There is considerable evidence that the local and state governments had more concern for political motives than the safety and comfort of their citizens.

Nagin's problem is that he has been questioned by Congress on more than one occasion. His memory span is somewhat less than 24 hours.

Anybody who has spent anytime in New Orleans KNEW that chaos would reign after a hurricane.

A lack of leadership, mis-management, corruption and lots of poor folk made for a very bad combination.

Whats amazingly foolish are attempts to lure folks back to New Orleans.

Sen. Susan Collins of Maine told Nagin, "We can't find any evidence of a request from the city or from the state to FEMA to get supplies to the Convention Center," to which Nagin replied, "With all due respect to Secretary [Michael] Chertoff and Mr. [Mike] Brown, I don't understand how anyone in authority with this type of crisis could say that they were not aware."

This is a hoot on several levels.

Nagin acts like NOLA was the only place that was impacted by Katrina.

And, guess what? FEMA partners the Red Cross and the Salvation Army showed up in NOLA with food and water. And they were turned away ... by the state DHS.

As I said, the Louisiana investigation won't go well for the rat.

About a year before the hurricane , New Orleans and Louisianna received millions of dollars in Homeland security money. Has anyone ever found out where it dissappeared too? They sure didnt buy any hurricane supplies with it. Maybe thats how Nagin made the down payment on his Texas home.

Nagin testifies before Congress again Nagin lies before Congress again That's more like it.
