There Are No Words...

Oh please, the federal government handled this situation about as well as the average kindergarten class would have. Everything they've touched, they've fucked up. Letting FEMA make decisions about what should be used to do what and setting the priority lists for action only made the situation worse. Ray Nagin is livid over the whoe disaster, and with very good reason. Working on the levee breaks on Tuesday as a top priority would have saved thousands of homes and millions in damage.

I lived in New Orleans for two years, and when you hear that something like this could happen, yeah, you shrug it off and go on with your day.

I cannot for the live of me imagine how those people are even getting by day to day. You take 100 degrees, near 100 percent humidity, then add 8-20 feet of water where there's usually not any, then you toss in an understaffed and overwhelmed police department, no apparent relief from outside in the form of troops until its so far past the necessary point that you end up with a complete breakdown in civility.

What's so hard to understand here, Lord of the Flies isn't that long of a read.
