"Brown blocked aid for five days? Got a source for that?"
Its all over - even Bush said the results of aid have benn unnacceptable.
"Far from deferring to state or local officials, FEMA asserted its authority and only made things worse, said Aaron Broussard, the president of Jefferson Parish, south of New Orleans. When Wal-Mart sent three trailer trucks loaded with water, FEMA officials turned them away, he said. Agency workers prevented the Coast Guard from delivering 1,000 gallons of diesel fuel, and on Saturday they cut the parish's emergency communications line, leading the sheriff to restore it and post armed guards to protect it from FEMA, Broussard said on "Meet the Press" on NBC.

said Aaron Broussard, the president of Jefferson Parish Broussard? Isn't he the jackass that started to bawl on Russert's show about how his cleaning lady's, wife's mother-in-law drowned after calling his office for 4 days in a row and he couldn't be bothered to go rescue her?

Broussard is a lying crybaby! In the end his efforts to protect his mayor, governor, or his own little feifdom will be his undoing.

You have lost so many arguments on this thread and yet you continue to spout half truths,supposition,quotes from left wing clueless Bush haters. The last straw is quoting Broussard. Nobody is going to post to you anymore, because you do not get it, you are clueless about Fema and First responders. I spent 22 years as part of First responders and you don't have the slightest idea what you are talking about. Post to yourself last responder, and keep digging that hole.

It only took two telephone calls to prove Aaron Broussard was a liar.
