1. I think I heard 3000 out of 4500 in Iraq. 1500 left in Louisiana. |
|
The whole 4500 would be barely adequate for this disaster.

3. Wasn't the Montana Guard also depleted? |

I think that defense against natural disasters is important, its what they are trained for...
We didn't have enough volunteers in regular forces, don't have enough with the National Guard forces either. we can't WIN! WE can't win anyways!!!
its just a stubborn SOB in an administration who won't admit he is wrong and who is trying to get his buddies in war profiteering companies until the last moment...
