like it or not, to do disaster relief. You can argue about whether or
not it should be their responsibility later, but the fact is, at the
time of Hurricane Katrina, it was FEMA's responsibility to handle the
evacuation planning and then pick up the pieces.

FEMA who was fired from his last job for malfeasance, dismantled their
planning office as it transitioned to the Department of Homeland
Security, sent the Louisiana National Guard to search for phantom WMDs
in Iraq, cut all disaster mitigation funding to the /entire state/ of
Louisiana, and defunded the levees. It is at his desk that the buck
stops, but he and his stand-ins are doing their best to blame everybody
else: the victims, the first responders, the police, the looters. Thisis
a failure of management at the highest levels: food was dropped in

Orleans</st1:City>, <st1:State w:st="on">LA</st1:State></st1:place>,
/today/, or six days after the hurricane. We are a first-world nation.
