Outside of New Orleans the water receded a while ago.

Well, this is true -- but it is reasonable for all available personnel to be dealing with the situation in New Orleans -- over there, lives can [perhaps] be saved. In Gulfport and Biloxi, you're dead or alive and that isn't likely to change.

It is a matter of priorities. Had more resources been allocated to MS, you guys would be raising hell that more people were dying in New Orleans as a result of a less-critical mission in MS. In MS, life is hard, but frankly, there has been very little additional risk to human life after the day of the storm. So, every available person is properly deployed dealing with the crisis in New Olreans.
