As the president of the brutalized Jefferson Parish put it in a Sept. 4 Meet the Press interview, speaking at the height of nationwide despair over FEMA's confused response: ‘If [the U.S.] government would have responded like Wal-Mart has responded, we wouldn't be in this crisis.’ ”

Had the N.O. residents, Jefferson Parish president, Nagin, Blanco and countless other "locals" been as prepared and responded like Wal-Mart, the FEMA psychos the Coast Guard wouldn't have been as necessary.

If the Corp opens the the Bonnet Carre spillway this year as some predict, wait for the next news flash. This one won’t involve the levees.
