Matthews is talking to Senator David Vitter, the first Republican Senator of LA, who sounds fabulous!!!!
FEMA Director is already on the ground in Louisiana, he says.
It could take months to completely drain New Orleans, he says.
Matthews asks such idiotic questions. "Can the pumps keep working during the storm?" DUH
This guy is on the phone, sounds so impressive explaining the pumps, the levies, and their limitations.
Geez. It will take decades for NO to recover.
I flipped over there (MSNBC) in time to hear "huge toxic waste pool" and something about disgusting stuff floating around. I guess he's battling Geraldo for most-dramatic descriptions. :)
