This sentence needs to be examined carefully. But Congressional investigators have now learned that an eyewitness account of the flooding from a federal emergency official reached the Homeland Security Department's headquarters starting at 9:27 p.m. the day before, and the White House itself at midnight Now, we know that PM means NIGHT, and Midnight means just that...mid-night. And this would have been EST. Not LA time. Were there any people out searching for what was wrong with the levys between 9:27 PM and daylight?????? Did the Feds have a signed statement that they could go in from the LA Governor by Tuesday morning? Who did the LA Governor have checking out the levy's on Tuesday morning? Who were the people trying to rescue people at the same time? Perhaps we should examine the 9-11 Commission recommendation that we have an overall Homeland Security Head....We know that Bush wasn't in favor of creating this new Department to be head of so many agencies, and that Hillary and Liberman were strongly for it. But whatever it is, we should look at what humans do, and the turf they try to deal with, and in some cases, try to protect....All of it takes TIME, and time was in very short supply those few days. There are many many questions that need to be answered here. We will have more disasters in the future, whether man caused disasters or nature caused disasters. We had better learn from this one, and also see what went right with the hurricanes in Florida just a few months before.... There are several timelines to be found....the top one is good, and the other two are extra for anyone who wants to know more. There are more in several places as well...
