Katrina aftermath - what the fuck???

Tubey · 2005-09-05, 04:18 PM

I am waiting on blaming anyone, there are too many variables. Besides they didn't know where the storm was going exactly, they had it going over NO then it went to the east some models were even predicting it to west of NO. So the question of where to put supplies and how much was unpredictable. Who knows they may have had a wharehouse full in NO and someone lost the keys.
In short, I find fault with everyone, from the govt to the people who refused to leave, and it becomes a big circle of what if. People have to realize errors happen and to have a perfect plan will never happen in a disaster this large.
So I wait, try to figure out what went wrong and try to prevent it from happening again. To sit here and get worked up about it now won't change what happened, it just adds more frustration and divides the effort to fix the problem at hand. As one person once said "hind sight is 20/20."

Tubey, no matter which way the storm goes, the people should have been ready - the military should have been on alert, the first round of supplies should have been in the trucks, and the fema people should have been ready to go.

It shouldn't have taken until Wednesday or Thursday to get these people on the ground.

SOMEONE dropped the ball - and the buck stops with the guy in the oval office (actually, he was the guy in a ranch in Texas taking a vacation until 2 days after the storm hit).

They still don't have a grip - why they have not ordered an evacuation of New Orleans is beyond me. they are still "just asking".

The head and the chicken have long since been seperated.
