You are being generous. We were calling this a probable CAT 4 NOLA hit on Friday:
Message 21642558

FEMA should have taken that as a RED flag (Not from us but from NHC). They should have been completely prepared by last Saturday.

Supply drops by air, that should led to some good shoot outs on the ground

FEMA has suggested contributions be made to -- get this -- Pat Robertson. As if we can trust him not to pocket our money.

Looks like Bush has polluted FEMA with cronies from the religious right who are totally clueless about public safety and merely blow their own horns a lot. None of them admit it's a disaster. They're all trying to spin to save their own behinds.

Heads should roll for this, starting with Bush's.

FEMA/BUSH: lie and deny. They're asleep at the wheel in their comfy quarters.

Word was that Bush PROBABLY will tour the area tomorrow but he might put it off until Saturday. Put it off?

The Bush Administration doesn't care one whit about these people. It can't believe the windfall profits its BASE is getting from oil prices.
