Son, money going to be cut is not money that was cut. Plus, you have over how many years of Corps of Engineers projects, year after year that have not been completed. This is not a current administration issue. This is an issue over decades of mis-management by the COE and Congress.
Poor Leadership fro every Gov in LA, every President since LA became a state! JFC - ok...where was the leadership with Pres Busy Pants? How come Eco-Wacko Gore did not build the Levees to 100 Feet? You see how stupid this gets when you blame a natural disaster on a person or group. I would not blame any single person for this - even Clinton, Carter, Johnson, Kennedy. Its does not make sense. Ok - the Corps of Engineers built the levees for a Cat 3 with 15 ft storm surge. How the **** can you have a plan for a 50ft storm surge. And this is not just about New Orleans. It's about MS, AL, FL - what would you 'plan? No one can live on the coast since there might be a 25 ft storm surge someday. Turn your lunatic conspiracy crap to another topic. You've lost this one!
N.O. being below sea level is not a current administration issue. I said this goes back to the time N.O. was founded. Every elected official in modern times 1950s forward is accountable for this. Every Corps of Engineers project started in the 1960s that has not been completed is accountable. What is a current administration issue is the anemic response to this crisis. For that, everyone is to blame - Nagin, Blanco, Feds on up to Bush. Martial law should have been declared on Tuesday. There are enough Amry, just Army personnel in the US to take the streets. If we really wanted this to done right, the Marines should have been deployed. After Andrew, Marines were operational in eight hours! It's not too little to late. It's not enough soon enough!
