Tell me where I am wrong

Everyone knows the facts now. Few are denying them anymore.

FACT: A panel of local, state, and federal officials concluded last year that once the bowl filled with water, "Residents should expect to be on their own for several days". There is no expedient way to get water, food, medicine, personnel, and equipment into New Orleans once it has been flooded. That's FACT.

FACT: The Mayor and Governor knew this.

FACT: The Mayor and Governor had three days warning that a hurricane that exceeded the protection of the flood control system was headed toward New Orleans.

FACT: By virtue of the State or Emergency declared by the President on Friday, the Mayor and the Governor had the manpower, the equipment, the
b TIME
, and the authority to help or force the citizens to evacuate.

FACT: Sitting ruined in New Orleans right now are over 200 school buses and 350 mass transit buses. All told, operated by the Mayor's 800 police officers and / or the Governor's 7500 State Police, those 550+ buses could carry about 35,000 people per convoy.

FACT: The Mayor is responsible, per the emergency management procedures of the City, for evacuation.

FACT: The Mayor and the Governor, knowing that the Feds, post-flooding,
b could not possibly help the citizens for three or four days,
DID NOTHING.

THEY

DID

NOTHING
