"I think no-one envisaged that it wold be this bad,..."

The "breaking of the levees and the tens of thousands of deaths" was
predicted precisely on NPR radio just days before Katerina made
landfall.

The prediction was NOT unique.

Bush, whose family owns a residence in the oil refining center of
Belle
Chase immeadiately alongside the river and levees, chose, in lieu of
presiding over and mobilizing National Guard, all available
transportation outifts, Army Corps of Engineers, etc., he went to
Arizona to push "Social Security."


Um.... The democratic Governor is the one in charge of mobilizing the
NG,
not the pres. That is sort of the reason for the NG.

Don't confuse him with facts.

Actually now that I read this again.

The NPR prediction is pretty impressive. How did they do it? Let me
see.....a cat 5 storm is about to hit a city that has levies designed for
a
cat 3 storm. With such little information and only days before the storm
hit, how did NPR make the prediction?

Maybe because they've been making that prediction for years? I made the
same
prediction years ago, when I got out of Louisiana.

Or is this the new liberal way? When the local democrats fail, blame Bush.

If anyone heard the NO mayor cursing up a storm on a radio interview the
other day, it is clear were a good part of the problem lies. Sounded more
like a street thug, than a Mayor. One quote I remember "We need to stop
givin G@# D@# interviews, and solve the G&*# D#% problem at hand".
