I predict a riot, I predict a riot...

Bushie claims that no one knew this sort of thing could happen to Katrina. that is a blatant lie. FEMA reports made this know years in advance. And it was reported widely.

if you're interested there is an article on it in National Geographic from last year, which eeriely predicts things almost exactly as they happened.

It is right here.

After reading this, which was based on the report, you'll know people DID know it would happen, and the results thereof. So either the people that SHOULD be reading those reports, are not reading them, or they are ignoring them. Either one of which is unpardonable.

Why is it that the people most outraged when government puts its hand in your pocket for taxes are often the people quickest to applaud when the government sticks its nose into your bedroom?

This scenario has been known for about 15 years. No escape route could ever be developed because the city is below sea level and surrounded by levies. The only real blame that can be cast in recent years is the decrease in funding to FEMA because of increased defense budget and the appointment of the inexperienced brown to director after the last director complained about the cuts. If you're going to blame a president for not making a special effort for this case, start with the first bush and clinton and then move on to W.
