Mr. President. What if the levees broke because of a terrorist attack instead of a hurricane? Would our disaster response have been better? If so why? And if it would have been no different, is that good enough?
What if this was West Palm Beach, FL or Los Angeles?
The US government is conducting a $5 billion a month operation in Iraq 10,000 miles from Louisiana with trucks, vehicles, medical equipment, supplies, food and water.
Meanwhile New Orleans looks like a third world country... dead bodies covered with blankets... old woman dead, in a wheel chair, covered up, flies swarming... dead body on the floor (Super dome) white blanket over her... no one, no official attending, nothing, nobody. No ones in charge there.
