Let's do; we have laws and regulations for a reason; because we've done it over and over on the east coast. And the way it's done it works.

You don't see any East coast governors standing around waiting to hear from the White House or FEMA to decide what to do to save their state.

And you sure as hell don't catch East Coast governors not returning the president's phone calls for 24 hours.

What's your point? We allow the citizens to suffer and die because of the incompetency of the governor and local authorities?

If you would give us your phone number, we can call you later in the week and you can be in charge of the next storm that's coming. I'm sure you'd do a perfect job.

I am sure I could do a better job than Blanco and Nagin. I ran and/or assisted several evacuations overseas and written evacuation and emergency plans. Your sarcasm is misplaced.

You all need to lighten up.

Yeah, that's the ticket.

Are you getting your talking points from Jesse Jackson?

This was a storm of Biblical proportions; people were going to die, regardless of how soon the aid got there; and you cannot save people who don't have the sense or will to save themselves.

Just because you wrote some disaster plans doesn't mean you could implement them without anything going wrong.

Maybe you could put them up here for us all to go over with a find tooth comb; I'm sure some on here could find something wrong with what you did.
