[quote]QUOTE: <i>Originally posted by jimrice4449</i> <br /><br />The mayor of NO's tears are real and justified. Now the whole country knows what a totally incompetent boob he is. How long was Katrina predicted to make landfall near NO? What kind of emergency plan did the incompetent mayor (hereafter referred to as IM) devise? Hell's bells, NO has been a potential huricane target since it was built why didn't IM and his political fllunkies take a brief time-out from their graft collecting to make some sort of rudimentary precautions. Who was it that announced that looters would be given a pass? IM that's who. I'm not a big fan of mayor Rudy, but the contrast between NYC on 9/11 and NO now is too obvious to ignore and whining about the feds not doing now some of the things IM and his gang of grafters should have done long ago isn't going to obscure the fact of his gross incompetence. <br />[/quote] <br /> <br />Jim [tup] if I remember correct, the standing order at first was to ignore them and recue people, understood, butwhen they started to loot for weapons, I think the balance of control was slowly shifting. edblysard on the Katrina thread stated that in Houston is now feeling the animal effect of the NO refugees. On Rushes show they just stated that much of NO is a welfare city, this could explain a lot of the help me attitude and not the I can do reality.
