[Vision2020] Mississippi and FEMA

[Pat Kraut]

I once has someone who went to Christ Church explain to me that those from
Georgia felt differently about the Civil War and I fear this comes under the
same description. I am sure that the south feels that they have been
slighted by the Feds. They have raved for years and they are well trained to
seek the help of the Feds, not do anything to help themselves. I do not care
how poor they are they could have filled some milk jugs with water. The
mayor could have gotten the buses from the schools and bused them out. The
National Guard is busy doing a lot of things that is what they are trained
for and what we are paying them to do. You might as well wail at God for the
timing of Katrina while the guard is stretched.
I am watching Lt Gen Carl Strock on C-Span right now and he is most
fasinating.

Again, form the Sun-Herald (Biloxi, Mississippi):

"By Saturday [September 3, 2005], not much had improved in some areas.
Hancock County had one FEMA representative on site, and he was looking for a
place to establish operations."

Well, Mr. Harkins . . . Is this the best that FEMA can provide seven days
after the hurricane?

Greetings Visionaires -

Mr. harkins stated that the blame for lack of sufficient response should be
limited to local authorities, specifically local authorities in the New
Orleans area.  He stated that all is fairly well concerning FEMA nad other
areas, like Mississippi.

As much as I would like to believe you, Mr. Harkin, the Sun-Herald (Biloxi,
Mississippi) has something different to say:

"law and order exist for the purpose of establishing justice, and when they
fail in this purpose, they become the dangerously structured dams that block
the flow of social progress."
