Yeah, right... the house is burning down and they DON'T NEED TO HEAR any
crap about the kid playing with matches.

Sure the local officials haven't done well, but where is FEMA? Where's
the "Dept of Homeland Security"? All that has happened is we have an
extra layer of gov't bureaucrats to blame each other and make excuses.
The policy of the Bush Administration has been to replace professional
administrators with yes-men & butt-kissers & ideologues chosen for their
personl loyalty to the Bush family... and now you want them to actually
*do* something? Ha!

Well Doug, if you can't see any FEMA or other federal support, then you must be
watching the Disney Channel.

Perhaps the whole mess would be in better shape if the incompetent locals (city
and state) were taken out of the equation.
