Nagin's worse than any Mayor Daly....

Really. Any thinking person has to realize that help is probably not going to
materialize instantaneously from outside the affected area of any disaster.

It's up to the folks right there on the scene to have a effective plan, and be
able to put that plan into place to be able to weather the storm (no pun
intended) until additional help can arrive.

As I recall it, they were warned in the past that Federal help may not arrive
for several days. They did not heed that warning.
