4. They didn't handle Florida differently, damn it.
Edited on Wed Sep-07-05 07:09 PM by Redstone
They just got lucky that there was no flooding, and that the people afected were, overall, better off, and therefore better able to help themselves.

And then, there's lower population density. No city the size of New Orleans got clobbered as badly as New Orleans did.

They were every bit as incompetent; it just didn't show.

Enough is enough, already. These people fucked up because they're fuckups, not because of some conspiracy.

Please.
