A year before Katrina He had attended a conference on this very topic where he agreed on this. Safe evacuation areas had been pre- decided. His failure to follow the plan that his office drew up is criminal. In addition, the Gov of a state (at least in LA and FL) has the authority to order such an evac. Blanco did not until she was almost ordered to do so by Bush. Now Brownie was a bozo but that does not excuse the criminal negligence by Nagin and Blanco. no the feds had the responsibility. and 100 school buses that hold 40 people aren't going to evacuate a city of several hundred thousand. nothing is ever the chimps fault is it. \ the Feds had no responsibility. They are prohibited from sending in the troops until the state asks. They did not. Nagin did not ask, the Gov did not ask. I was there the next year with Habitat Fro Humanity in Slidell when the election was be contested. could not believe the statements that Nagin was only mayor for 3 years, what could he do? And they reelected him sad. I have spent a lot of time in NO over the years and even before katrina it was the filthiest city in North America. My main memory of NO is the smell of raw sewage and that was several years before Katrina. The problem with NO is that it has the most corrupt pols in the USA. people in NO are more afraid of the police than they are of criminals. Nagin refused to order an earluier evac simply because he was afraid of losing lucrative convention business. He also could have used the Nat Guard to better prep the Dome and the convention center for sheltering people but he did not because he was afraid of hurting business. Nagin and Blanco completely ignored their own hurricane emergency plan and should be hung from lamp posts on Bourbon St. |

Sorry your wrong. Never in any past storms or disaster has it been a federal responiblity. The State & locals ran the show & ****ed up. To be fair no major US city has ever tried to do a evac of that size. The nature of NO however makes the place unsafe on a good day. The problem of the Chocolate city predate GW. |

What he didn't have and doesn't have is judgment. and neither does McCain. Last time I checked Fluid dynamics is not a presidental power. |

"CalifBill" wrote in message m... the Feds had no responsibility. They are prohibited from sending in the troops until the state asks. They did not. Nagin did not ask, the Gov did not ask. I was there the next year with Habitat Fro Humanity in Slidell when the election was be contested. could not believe the statements that Nagin was only mayor for 3 years, what could he do? And they reelected him sad. I saw Nagin being interviewed today as they prepare for Gustav. He basically blamed the residents for the Katrina disaster. Wonder if he'll be re-elected again. Or does anybody down there care? What a piece of work he is. Eisboch |
