Please then identify for me the equipment and humans the President is supposed to have at the ready to evacuate hundreds of thousands of people, spread across three states, who stayed behind to ride out a cat 4-5 hurricaine, which by the way put left 20 feet of water over 80% of a city. Is there some compound somewhere where a million guys are sitting around waiting with a billion dollars in rescue equipment? Is there any admistration in history who could have involuntarily moved all those poeple out who stayed? You just aren't considering the size of the task at hand. No government anywhere could do anything about this other than what you see being done right now. Your Bush bashing is really coming at a bad time here. Instead of complaining why not jump in with the team for once?
