Everybody knew it. It is why Mayor Nagin got on the radio Saturday night with a personal appeal for everyone to leave New Orleans. A famous and retired judge in NO was not going to leave until he heard that Saturday night appeal. Katrina struck Monday morning which is why that Judge safely got out of town.
Max Mayfield of the National Hurricane Center was so concerned that he did something he never did. Not once ever in something like 20 years. Max personally called every major leader. He did this to make sure everyone knew that Katrina was the big one. Did he call the president? Never said. But the president and everyone in that video conference were told this was the worst case disaster of Hurricane Pam and all previous simulations. Hurricane Pam was the disaster that everyone knew to be the worst possible disaster. (Notice it was known to be so bad that I used the word 'the' multiple times.) So bad that Max Mayfield did something he never does. Personally call warnings to everyone. Katrina was that much a disaster. Only reason that top management could not know - by definition - that person would have to be anti-America.
From those video tapes, Brown also knew this AND was literally begging -all but got on his knees - begged everyone to even violate rules to get him assistance. IOW he knew from Hurricane Pam that he was in trouble and was telling that to a mental midget president.
George Jr - as any mental midget would do - sat there, listened, never asked a single question, and never gave any direction. Even the Three Stoogers would have been better leaders. But then the mental midget president is also an MBA. No way around the reality of that fact either.
Contrast this with a leader who - by definition - was patriotic. During the upper Mississippi floods that were easily of same scale, Clinton asked incisive questions AND provided direction. Clinton did what anyone with minimal intelligence would do. Therefore those Upper Mississippi floods were only another interesting news story. What the mental midget president did was condemn some people to death. George Jr literally meets the definition of anti-American as well as someone with an MBA background. In fact, using the definition of patriotic American, even bin Laden is a better patriotic American than George Jr. At least bin Laden grasps reality. No wonder George Jr did not try to get bin Laden. It required him to make a decision - to ask incisive questions - which George Jr never once did even the entire day of 11 September 2001.
Is above an insult? Insults do not come supported by five years of examples and blunt facts. In every disaster, George Jr did nothing while people were dying. Not just in New Orleans. During 911 and the Indian Ocean Tsunami are previous examples. Never forget where the USS Lincoln task group sat for five days doing nothing as George Jr fiddled. Never forget where the USS Bataan sat for five days as George Jr fiddled. Facts that Rush Limbaugh liars hope good American don’t learn.
Does George Jr know who Nero was? No, it was more important to go to CA on a campaign fund raiser. There is no way for a single decent American to deny these facts. None whatsoever. George Jr has only done again what everyone should expect from a mental midget - with a history of letting people die - and then casting blame elsewhere.
Anyone who disputes this better have hard ass facts - and video tape. Fans of George Jr - hearafter called fools - cannot dispute this without lying - without posting classic Rush Limbaugh half truths and propaganda. IOW fans of George Jr would have to be as anti-American as the mental midget to deny this post.
