RE: [RC] Hurricane Fallout - Linda Cowles

Hindsight is always 20/20 or in this case it's 10/10.     
NO >>ONE...not even the President of the United States 
foresaw the >>devastation 

I'm sorry but I have to say that this is just not true.  The 
President of the US and FEMA and HOME LAND SECURITY knew, 
they were briefed on exactally what would happen in New 
Orleans if a catagory 4 or above hurricane would hit,  right 
down to the  levies failing and the body count.  Go hide your 
head in the sand and pray a natural dissaster does not hit your town.

And the Army Corp of Engineers was adamant about the potential, particularly
with a severe storm season prediction, when their funding was cut. 

They (George Bush, FEMA, HOME LAND SECURITY and on down the chain) gambled,
even though the odds were stacked against them. They were gambling with our
money, too.

With the warm water temp in the Atlantic, this is probably just be the first
of many bad storms of the year....
