I was on another thread ( after I'd heard first hand news from La.) We need a time line (paralell time lines>)

Katrina hit NO Sunday night/Monday morning
People celebrated a near miss
Levees broke, Monday night/Tuesday morning.
Bush had already called disaster; rounded up NG from neighboring states; ordered Navy to sail from Norfolk. W overflew area en route DC; FEMA ordered to respond (not just to New Orleans but the entire Gulf Coast)
Consider evaluation, logistics and movement..massive effort.
Blanco committed LaNg Thursday night
Other states NG, US Navy and Coast Guard arrive Friday morning.
This is local and state negligence wall to wall....

Thanks for the timeline. It wasn't until Thursday night that Blanco committed the LNG? Who was in the helicopters picking people up off their roofs for the last three days?

But Wait- It's Black people, a Black mayor, and a Female (minority?) and they, by PC definition, cannot be incompetent- or can they?
