Katrina Response Mismanagement

[scaeagles]

The mismanagement goes to the governor and mayor as well.

The governor should have declared martial law. Period. She didn't have the guts to do so.

The mayor didn't even follow the NOLA evacuation plan -

Louisiana disaster plan, pg 13, para 5 , dated 01/00

'The primary means of hurricane evacuation will be personal vehicles. School and municipal buses, government-owned vehicles and vehicles provided by volunteer agencies may be used to provide transportation for individuals who lack transportation and require assistance in evacuating'...

He was also extremely chummy with Bush after they met and talked. I wonder what happened to cause the turn around.

The victims and those looking in from the outside have every right to be critical. One politician pointing fingers at another is nothing but political CYA, as I can't think of anyone who did anything well, from local to state to federal government.

I think that rapper - Kanye whatever - serves no good purpose. Racial rhetoric at this time is disgusting.
