As blatant as the pictures were--live and up front on ALL MEDIA circuits the only point to Hurricane Katrina is to open a whole can of folks who basically kept swept under a rug. Then they got swept down Ole Man River... And I am NOT even close to joking...
And as far as Mayor Nagin preparedness level goes, he has never done disaster relief and has little experience is managing one of the worst natural disasters in the Untied States. That in no way is an excuse. But he did trust the "FEDERAL authorities" to tell him what his city services will be capable of doing when Hurricane Katrina hit... And at best, are you folk pissed of at Kanye West's statements trying to tell me (and only me, not anyone else) that this is the BEST that the FEDS can do for disaster preparedness?
How Mayor Nagin not know that the levees were only built to sustain a category 3 or 4 hurricane is beyond me.
Nevertheless, hindsight is always 20/20...
And the fingerpointing game will be continued after these few words by our commercial (spelled=BIG TICKETED IN THE BILLIONS CAMPAIGN CONTRIBUTORS) sponsors... Oh, did I say that out loud...
