Reply #158: Deploying the reserves ... [View All]

[chicagiana]

Bush hasn't learned much about how a city acts when the authorities leave has he??? The looting in New Orleans is out of control. They should have had Army units ready to deploy to keep order.

Now that the situation is out of control, they'll just have to wait until all the store shelves are empty. If people want to protect their houses, they'll have to return with flat bottom boats and semi-automatic weapons.

BTW, does anyone else think it's suspicious that the levees didn't break until AFTER the hurricane passed and it was clear the storm surge was not going to swamp the city. It would probably only take a couple of sticks of dynamite to get those things flowing. Seems like someone wanted Bush to have another pile of debris to climb on top of.

The hurricane had passed and the city was safe from catastrophe. Than overnight the levies broke.
