[Vision2020] The federal response to Katrina was not as portrayed

[Pat Kraut]

I too have wondered if any of the squawkers are aware of the massive
problem. It wasn't perfect but it wasn't as bad as some would like us to
believe. The black leadership is only accusing Bush of racism because they
have failed their people so badly.Why were all those people, of any color,
some of the poorest in the city, living so close to the problem? The whole
area is run by democrats so the black leadership is desperately trying to
blame anyone but them.

Interesting . . .

Quoting:

"The federal government pretty much met its standard time lines, but the
volume of support provided during the 72-96 hour was unprecedented. The
federal response here was faster than Hugo, faster than Andrew, faster
than Iniki, faster than Francine and Jeanne."

Of course this is from an "opinion" page, but it is interesting
nonetheless.
