which, of course, is a non sequitur. *there's not a local govt in the

ignored FEMA and appointed a horse lawyer to head the agency....they
didn't take it seriously


No local gov has to by themselves... they just have to ask for
assistance from the feds. Nagel and Blanco did not.



Any shine you may have had has quickly worn off... you've become
another insincere, disingenuous non-boating liberal shill in this NG.


fine. you let me know how your local govt would deal with a disaster
like katrina. go ahead...we'll wait


Reference Hugo... The SC gov asked for federal assistance in a timely
manner, evacuated it's citizens before landfall, and was as ready as
it could be. They did what they needed, and were supposed to do.

Nagel and Blanco failed miserably in NO. Bush tried to get them to
let feds take over, and they refused. Two days after landfall, they
finally asked for federal assistance. The blood is on their hands.
Oh, and they are Demoncrats.
