THis whole thing was a clusterf... A clusterfu... A demonstration of what happens when central planning meets general mayhem.

Imric's Tips for Living

Paranoia Is a Survival Trait
Pessimists are never disappointed - but sometimes, if they are very lucky, they can be pleasantly surprised...
Even though everyone is out to get you, it doesn't matter unless you let them win.

Nothing is as simple as it seems in the beginning,
As hopeless as it seems in the middle,
Or as finished as it seems in the end.

I'm POed at many.

The Prez, the Guv, the Mayor, the cops that walked off the job, the assholes shooting at rescue copters, the list goes on...

Wouldn't that be: Major Planning meets General Mayhem?

nope

but you were only talking about the buses in your reply to BP.

And yes, I agree it was a fustercluck :-) The thing that's been pissing me(and BP) off is that all we're seeing is how the feds failed New Orleans. Never mind the mayor who had to be told by others to evacuate his city and then not follow the evacuation plan. Never mind the governor who "needs 24 hours" to accept Bush's offers for help(watch the biasedly described video Nagin still outspoken at CNN for this interesting tidbit). No, it's all Bush's and the Fed's fault. Sure, they have their share of the blame, but to me it pales in comparision to the local/state.

For a comparison of successful local/state handling of a disaster, just look one state over. And even then, we're asking [link|http://www.chron.com/cs/CDA/ssistory.mpl/special/05/katrina/3339670|WERE WE PREPARED?] instead of blaming everybody else.
