I think that our government was at least 36 hours late in their response, and I still think New Orleans is being grotesquely mismanaged. I think a lot of that is leadership failures, both Bush and local/state authorities.
Bush doesn't live in the same world as normal people. He doesn't understand it, because he's never had to participate in it. Therefore, none of this has the same impact on him as it does on us regular folks, who can imagine ourselves in the same predicament as these poor bastards.
The wife and I are going to spend Labor Day weekend assembling a disaster kit. There may be firearms involved.
