New Orleans is in trouble.
May 22, 2006The Big Easy.....you've got a big problem.
No...not because the Storm Prediction center released their 2006 hurricane outlook.
Because you re-elected Ray Nagin.
Make no mistake...from my end, the blame for what happened in N.O. because of Hurricane Katrina starts with Ray Nagin.
Disaster readiness begins on the local level. Evacuations begin at the local level. Ensuring the refugee centers are prepared starts on the local level.
There is plenty of blame to share, but I guess the voters who had to be bussed in from other cities forgot about that. Maybe the memories of seeing thousands of fellow citizens stranded on the tops of bridges and in the horrid Superdome have faded.
Because of his failure to heed the warnings from Mike Brown (FEMA) and Prez. Bush, those people weren't evacuated. They could have been....they should have been.
But their mayor waited and stalled. He was not prepared.
What on earth were those voters thinking. You think he's prepared to lead the city into recovery and reconstruction?
Give me a break.
