So, because your mayor fails you, it's OK for your country to fail you too?

Failed?

Did anyone starve? Did anyone die of dehydration?

Where was the damn Louisiana National Guard?

Yup.

Starving takes a little longer, but dehydration? Several, or were you not
paying attention, again.

A relief effort of that magnitude takes time, even under ideal conditions.
That's why Bush asked Blanco and the Mayor on the Friday before the storm to
implement a mandatory evacuation. Mayor Nagin waited until Sunday to order
the mandatory evacuation...and then never used the buses at his disposal to
get the people out.


With rising flood waters, 80% of the roads impassable even one week after
the hurricane struck, and armed thugs shooting at police and relief workers,
it's amazing that the relief effort is able to do anything at all.

I guess in this case, the mayor lowered the bar even further than Bush
himself could have, so everything's fine this way.

Bush is the relief pitcher coming into the game in the bottom of the ninth
with bases loaded, no outs, and a tie ball-game. He even inherited his
predecessor's (Nagin) 3 and 0 pitch count.

Blanco is the Manager...and it's her fault she didn't act more quickly.

Let's just hope that Bush is Mariano Rivera.
