> that's why the army is part of the first responders' effort. You freaking dolt. Army is NOT a first-responder. Can you name a disaster in this country where Army was a 'first-responder'? Yes.......Haiti, LA, NOLA. I know Haiti isn't part of the US now but it will be soon. > Oh hell.....you don't even watch NBC. I don't. But I know more about Katrina than you ever will. Your statement in regard to Brian Williams is made up. He was HQed at the Ritz the entire time after he left the Dome. It is true a few reporters came and went during the flood period, but getting in and out was tenuous at best. You just don't know what you're talking about. First no one could get in and out of NOLA. Now suddenly people could get in and out but it was tenuous at best. So then, I guess first responders expect and demand clear sailing when they go into a disaster area. They will not tolerate any problems or obstacles. And if they do encounter obstacles, they will take their supplies and equipment, and go back home. Is that what you are telling the thread?
