Don't blame it all on wingnuts.
I lived in LA for years. NO was a corrupt cesspool and everything
was under funded but over paid, due to graft and pay offs. Nothing
could get done without the right connections.
Plus the response of both the Governor and the Mayor were
spectacularly stupid. There is a reason Blanco did not run for reelection.

If the wingnut propaganda were true, this would not have happened. The
government would have soaked us for lots of dough to build huge
bulwarks against the elements -- just like they built in Holland.
Instead the bulwarks were under funded and under engineered, following
the "don't tax me" mantra of the wingnuts. And the poor response
afterwards was run by wingnuts too. Remember "You are doing a fine job
Brownie."? In the years prior FEMA had been gutted. The professionals
had been pushed out and replaced by pols and frat brothers. This was a
wingnut operation through and through.
