"This is a national disgrace," said Terry Ebbert, head of New Orleans’ emergency operations. "FEMA has been here three days, yet there is no command and control," Ebbert said. "We can send massive amounts of aid to tsunami victims but we can’t bail out the city of New Orleans."

"We have got a mayor who has been pushing and asking but we’re not getting supplies," he said. He said the evacuation was almost entirely a Louisiana operation. "This is not a FEMA operation. I haven’t seen a single FEMA guy."

Mayor Ray Nagin, in issuing his dire plea in a statement to CNN, said: "Right now we are out of resources at the convention center and don’t anticipate enough buses. Currently the convention center is unsanitary and unsafe and we are running out of supplies for 15,000 to 25,000 people."

28. Done and so is Bush!

The poll is right up his alley. Black and white. No gray. None of those people are just a lil dead. None of them are more dead others. Bush thrives on National Polarity NO MORE! WE ARE ONE and he's shut out! We don't need that Son of Bush's divisiveness. Setting Countryman against Countryman to fight to the death in the Arena of the Coliseum for the pleasure and entertainment of Emperor Nero and the Senate.

I'll bet Bush & Rove are playing with their lil lable maker. Twist Spin Click! "Unamerican" Who do we put this one on?
