Now They Realize It

One thing I'm noticing in all the talk of evacuation from Gustav is all the work that hasn't been finished, all the hurricane protections still from Katrina that are still in need of work, all the supposed protection that isn't up to the task. Now they realize this? What's been going on for the last three years? They can cite time lines and whatever they want, but this country has been able to get the job done and on time when it mattered before and they could do it again....but they need their leaders to recognize this and treat it accordingly. So now how many more people are going to die because we weren't prepared for this storm?

If it had been Kennebunkport it would have been done. That is the cold hard honest truth. And it infuriates me.

Glad you are leaving, be safe!

Timing is everything...Smack dab in between the 2 political parties is Gustov...The nation and world is watching to see how this is going to be handled...if nothing else, it will help accentuate the facts of what has been shamefully neglected...Ironically, that will be good for the region because no matter how we tout "we will never forget," ...we forget...
