Louisiana/Federal government Conference Calls made public.

For the third time, NPR did not provide commentary. They put 14 hours of pre and post Katrina Conference Calls on their website. They did not opine on the content.

What the hell are you talking about? The evacuation procedures were followd to a T, and th city and low lying areas was evacuated in 50 hours. That is 22 hours less than the evacuation is planned to take. The evacuation was a miracle. I don't know why you keep saying the evacuation plans weren't followed. Are you making that up?

Yeah there wasn't much rescuing going on. Except for the 20,000 people pulled off rooves the morning after the storm, and the 50,000 pulled from rooves in the days after.

Yes I am VERY happy that a certified horse judge with absolutely no experiance in disaster relief is no longer the head of FEMA. To me, you should at least be first aide certified to head FEMA. Maybe horse judging is similar to disaster relief. I don't know.

 

1) For the third time ok, if the information is correct fine.

2) Am I making stuff up, followed to a "T"?
If we are going down that road our conversation is o*v*e*r and d*o*n*e*
I don't make Sh!t up!

The Real truth, is this what NO evacuation plans call for?

New Orleans evacuation money went to causeway bridge study

Even the Red Cross at their website said this:
The original plan was to evacuate all the residents of New Orleans to safe places outside the city. With the hurricane bearing down, the city government decided to open a shelter of last resort in the Superdome downtown. We applaud this decision and believe it saved a significant number of lives.

Was the origional evacuation plan done or not?

 

Heres your NPR, was the evacuation procedures followed to a "T"?

Through extensive interviews, Zwerdling and Sullivan report that by the Friday morning
preceding the hurricane, public officials in the New Orleans area knew that they might be facing a catastrophic storm. In turn, they had plans prepared for providing food, water, shelter and security to evacuees; for assuring communications between all branches of government, and to enlist the on-site help of National Guard units from around the nation.

As NPR News details, however, these plans fell far short of what was necessary - a combination of incomplete preparation, bureaucratic bungling and indecision.

Red provided some links with interesting information but I took it through a filter like
I do "all" news.
NPR is Liberal and most understand that!
Thank You for the links

So I don't guess anyone objected to the information I posted from the Red Cross or
the article about the O'Reily Factor not to mention the interview with Major Garrett
on Hugh Hewitt's show.
That newspaper article of yours is wrong, in the beginning Red.
Has to be!

 

Yes, O'Reilly is conservative and I do receive my news through a filter even
Fox News but you can't dismiss the interview where American Red Cross president Marsha "Marty" Evans repeated the reason the Red Cross did not go into New Orleans that is published on their official website. She claimed that Louisiana's State Homeland Security Department refused to allow the Red Cross into New Orleans because LA-DHS felt that the presence of the Red Cross "would keep people from evacuating and encourage others to come into the city."

Yes, it was probably a good idea for the Red Cross not to go into New Orleans
because the city wasn't secure.
I wonder why that was?

I was objecting because all those people trapped in NO was wondering where
the food and water was.
1) State and local governments failed to secure the city and provide food and
water for the people.
2) The Red Cross wasn't allowed to enter the city because according to the
La Dept of Homeland Security, they didn't want the people to stay in the city, if given food and water the people wouldn't want to leave.
The people had no way to get out of the city also.
Yes, security issues were a concern and all of this could've been avoided
if the governor would've had adequate forces to handle the situation.

Alot of problems could've been avoided if the city was secure?
Correct?
Who was responsible for security, securing the city of NO?
