TO get a flavor you would have to read the last few hundred posts. A freeper on the ground has painted a horrifying portrait of a city being lost.
Hundreds dying as I type because looters and SOBs are shooting at the 1,000 citizens who tried, with boats, to save people on roofs. Disagreement among freepers whether shooting to kill looters is a good thing or not.
Women and children being raped and murdered.
Big fire in NO off I-10; screams were heard from inside.
Briefing now by Justice Department and Homeland Security.
And still freepers complaining because the president hasn't sent in the military to quell the civil unrest.
Justice Department saying right now they are except from doing such a thing -- unless the Governor so mandates. And I can't tell yet if she has done so yet.
the Dod spokeman and this general are beig very precise and careful to put the tag on Blanco. excellent, these guys both understand the proper role.

It's Thurs already. All those bad things you listed are still happening. The criminals are interfering with FEMA's lawful rescue efforts. Regardless od FEMA related law, 18USC 24X related law is being violated by the murderous criminals. The Justice dept is full of it. Gonzales is either an empty airhead, or he's flat out lying.
From where I sit, it looks like the inaction is deliberate.
