I hope some folks check out the evacuation (and inbound supply) routes and
realize why getting all the food, water, equipment, security forces, boats,
etc., may have been somewhat difficult.

The mighty US military should have the ability to land massive amounts
of materiel and food with amphibious vehicles.

I wonder what it is like to constantly have to rationalize the failures
of your party's president.


God, I should have left you filtered!

Do you expect maybe an Omaha Beach landing, Harry? Do you think we could have
rounded up enough landing craft from the Marines at Camp Pendleton to do the job
in about 5 hours? Where would they land, Harry? Oh, the ports are gone? Well,
how about on the nice sandy beaches? Oh, they're gone too? Well, maybe they
could just drive up on the under water roads? Oh, they're full of trash and too
deep to drive trucks through?

Harry, get your head out of your ass for a change.

WE have small, medium and large amphibious craft in our military. Some
of them are small enough to be trucked, or even dropped from copters.

Ever seen one of these, Herring?

http://tinyurl.com/9upj7


Do you, in your wildest dreams, believe those are air dropable on other than a
large pallet? Do you believe, even for a moment, that they are air dropable full
of food? Can you imagine a C-130 shoving one of those out it's ass end over New
Orleans? Do you think there's even a remote chance it would be useable after
hitting the Hilton Hotel?

As I said, Harry, get your head out. You know absolutely nothing about military
capabilities.

By droppable, Herring, I don't mean slammed down. I mean dropped into
the water from a couple of feet.
There's no shortage of launch sites in NO.
And since they are amphibs, they can be driven to the water.

You must have been one hell of a soldier. Was your answer always, "No,
we can't do that!"?

Are you one of the reasons why we lost in Vietnam?


And just what is supposed to do that, Harry? Can a CH-47 haul one of those?
Loaded with food and water and security? Maybe we could clear out all the Coast
Guard and Army rescue helicopters and bring in a few CH-54's? Then, of course,
you'd be whining that people were dying because the rescue activity had stopped.

You still have the problem of where to put them, but we wouldn't want to get too
practical.

Droppable into feces ridden, rotten 5 to 10 feet deep water.

That was the Governors answer also.

Brilliant.

Krause joins the Governor of Louisiana and the Mayor of New Orleans .....all
incompetent..........none have a clue.

Yup! I did, no regrets. Along with others, made this group enjoyable to
read.

My father was there. God rest his soul. Harry is out of his mind. No idea
of the years of preplanning that went into it. Rome wasn't built in a day
and Omaha Beach wasn't readied in a day.

Maybe Harry has had a little too much of something John. Psychedelic
illegal pharmaceudicals?

Sorry, no sympathy for him.

Nobody said it was easy. But they're airlifting 2 ton sandbags by
helicopter. I wonder if 2 tons of food weighs more than 2 tons of sand.
Perhaps someone can shed some light on this.
