I don't believe the statement that "there was no southern incompetence" as
local activity by the Governor and the Mayor of NO was poorly planned and
badly executed. Hanging all of the blame on the federal government is
inaccurate and irresponsible. I believe future investigations will verify
that there is plenty of blame to pass around. Whether one likes Bush or not,
he made a timely declaration to get things started and it got worse from
there. Opinions on this mess seem to be based on something other than facts.

I know right wing talking heads are incensed over the statement that
this is really worse but it really is with the populations of whole
cities turned into refugees that will probably be displaced for years
and probably a higher death rate. The real crime is the delay, the
turning away of aid, an empty hospital ship cruising in the Gulf with
its use being blocked by FEMA, the gutting of FEMA and being placed
under the leadership of a man who has no qualification other than
being a friend of Bush and who failed at organizing horse shows, the
stopping work on the levees last year for the first time in 15 years.
There really is no southern incompetence except for maybe not paying
attention and voting again for the pack of thieves and liars in
Washington who have sworn to do away with the government. FEMA is
just the first evidence of how successful they have been.
