This is likely the cause of all delays in getting help to Louisana. A giant P*ssing contest between the Red democrats who don't want to be out of the loop on all this aid, and the Feds who want to come in and manage things their way.
The Feds need to keep up the non-partisan aspect of this until the democrats are exposed for what they are: A weak minded bunch of bureaucrats intent on keeping their share of the pie.

Blanco DID declare a State of Emertgency on August 26th. The crime is she did nothing with it.

Don't expect to hear it in the MSM. Uh, hello? The Compost just vindicated Bush. The frickin' Compost.

You would think some one from the Dems or MSM would have to question not calling for a state of emergency. The MSM have been screaming state of emergency at the top of their lungs. I know I've heard every commentator say "this is a state of emergency"

Arizona and New Mexico have a state of emergency but Louisiana doesn't?

She doesn't want the Feds in charge, because the contrast will be too great - chaos before, order after. She wants the ability to muck things up, and the freedom to blame the Feds. It is all about her, you see. Always is with rats.

It sounds like she is trying to keep this "In House" Perhpas Blanco thinks that by keeping it "in house", she can contain and/or cover up the facts of her incompetence.
Circle the wagons!

She's just making sure she gets her cut of the contracts to rebuild New Orleans. Bingo! My thought exactly. She doesn't want the Feds running this thing because the contracts (which will be in the $10s of billions) wouldn't be going to the "right" people.

One wonders what it would take for Gov. Blanco to consider it an emergency. Blanco has all the leadership of a caboose.

Somebody is very confused. She declared a state of emergency on Aug 26, many days before the hurricane hit.
Gov. Blanco Declares State of Emergency
That's not to excuse her incompetence, but there's a mixup of facts here. I've also seen it earlier today on FR, but I can't find the reference.

Democrat in the white house. Then she'd declare an emergency to get $20 in federal grants for pencils.
