That should be Bush decking Nagin. It's Nagin's screwup, not Bush's. He's the mayor, Blanco's the governor, between them they shouldn't have let things get to the state that they had to call in the feds. When did disaster prevention and recovery become primarily a federal responsibility? It's your city, you prepare a real evacuation plan, including provision for the people with no transport. And when you call three mandatory evacuations a year, expect that people will get tired of listening to them, and when the big one hits they'll be at home, so have a plan B. And when you release all the prisoners, and tell the police not to bother the looters because rescuing people takes priority, what do you think is going to happen?
