He would help himself if he had some facts and figures to bring to this new round of TV appearances.

How many MREs were delivered to the Superdome -
How many rooftop rescues were accomplished by the Coast Guard and other military agencies -
How many very ill people were triaged and sent to other hospitals -
How many criminals were released from prisons -
How fast the pumps were replaced or repaired -
How many Navy and Coast Guard vessels were deployed to the Gulf Coast BEFORE the storm, so they would be in position to help after the storm had passed -

And especially, every time he is on TV he should say New Orleans suffered two attacks by nature. The hurricane hit at dawn on Monday. It passed. The sun came out. People cheered. The canal walls failed Monday afternoon and Monday night. The flood that inundated the Ninth Ward and St Bernard Parish happened late Monday and Monday night.

Nope. Canal walls failed during the storm. National weather Service issued a bulletin at 8:14 AM on Monday re: Industrial Canal; The 17th Street canal was reported broken at 3AM (by National Guard Bureau) and 5AM Monday (by LA State Police).

The flood that inundated the Ninth Ward and St Bernard Parish happened late Monday and Monday night.

Yep. Takes a long time to flood such a large area.
