"For instance, it took five days for National Guard troops to arrive in strength on the scene in Homestead, Fla. after Hurricane Andrew hit in 2002."

A) Andrew was in 1992. Somehow I suspect the rest of the article is whacked.
B) Andrew is often used as a classic example of how FEMA screwed up. And why Clinton hired a professional to head FEMA and turn it into a useful agency.

This is why you are better off not posting links. You usually destroy your own argument with them.
