Major Garrett of Fox just reported FEMA and Red Cross had supplies of food,water, toiletries to bring to Superdome and Convention Center last week BUT WERE ORDERED NOT TO by the LA Homeland Security Dept. They did not want to draw more people to these areas. This is Hugh!

Oooh, did they say when they were denied access?

FNC just had Red Cross director on who stated LA NG prevented them from distibuting supplies b/c they did not want the evacuees to stay at the Superdome.

Worked perfectly. They all went outside.

No definitive date given, but it sounded they were ready to go immediately, most likely Wednesday and/or Thursday.
