Governor Of Louisiana Refused Bush Aid

Gov. Kathleen Blanco Refused Bush Aid
NewsMax:

Though her state has been devastated by Hurricane Katrina and thousands are believed dead in New Orleans, Louisiana Gov. Kathleen Blanco has refused to allow the federal government to take control of evacuation efforts.

"Shortly before midnight Friday, the Bush administration sent her a proposed legal memorandum asking her to request a federal takeover of the evacuation of New Orleans," the Washington Post reported in Sunday editions.

Gov. Blanco's office rejected the request, the paper said - concerned that such a move would be comparable to a federal declaration of martial law.
The Louisiana Democrat had also failed to use more than a hundred school buses parked near to Superdome to transport stranded citizens who didn't have to means to obey earlier evacuation orders.

After the 17th Street Levee broke on Tuesday, the buses were rendered usless by rising flood waters.

State and federal officials also told the Post that Gov. Blanco did not reach out to a multi-state mutual aid compact for assistance until Wednesday - more than 24 hours after New Orleans descended into chaos.

This is disturbing, but not surprising.

Another blogger friend of mine mentioned he didn't know what party the Mayor of New Orleans and the Governor of Louisiana were, I did a wikepedia search and found they are both Democrats. The Mayor actually switched from being a Republican to being a Democrat because the majority of the voters in N.O. traditionally vote Democrat.
That's typical. wet your finger, see which way the wind is blowing and go that way. Nevermind what's right.

Also neither one of those politicians have any experience in government, and especially in handling disasters.
