4. "What fresh slice of Hell is this?"

I don't think this was a plot so much as they're incompetent morons who couldn't hold a job at McDonald's if they had to actually work for a living.

6. Think twice or three times at least on that one...Look at the facts & $$$$

Halliburton and Cheney soon to be in NOLA for 'clean-up'...how handy! (They've already been contracted for naval base repair in Mississippi...)

NOLA: 25% U.S. Oil Production

NOLA: Major Port City in War Time

NOLA: Under posse comitatus and eminent domain in effect

THEY WANTED THIS TO HAPPEN.

5. Whatever, it still starts with Bush...

Bush should've been on Chertoff's ass and on down to Brown long before that.

I don't accept Brown as a scapegoat.

I want to work for FEMA, sounds more like a country club than a relief agency.
