i just cant stand the empty bush bashing these morons domore bullshit from rockheadEDDYVILLE, Ky. (AP) In the first real test of the Obama administration's ability to respond to a disaster, Kentucky officials are giving the federal government good marks for its response to a deadly ice storm.
FEMA gets decent marks for ice storm response - USATODAY.com
Like usual you wingnuts are full of it. Obama did well, Bush totally failed Katrina. Brownie told him days prior to the landfall the levees would not hold. Whether he did enough or not, the mayor of New Orleans followed the protocols for that emergency. FEMA, under a man that was a failure even at running horse shows, did not.
Yap on all you wish, the American People fully realize what happened during Katrina.
FEMA didnt fail in MS, AL, or FL during Katrina
you and your fucked up hate re the only difference
The federal, state and local government was caught with their pants down for Katrina. Few people remember the levees held until the next day. New Orleans was in good shape until the levees broke. Everyone was breathing a sigh of relief and folks were dancing in the streets until the levees broke. So I can understand how government was caught off guard. It affected well over a million people. I remember FEMA food and Ice centers setup a few days after the storm. Troops all over the place giving people a hand. You are not going to make everyone happy after something like that.
I pray the folks in Kentucky or doing better and will be out of this mess. How do we donate?

the media played it all up and made it look like it was way worse than it was
the only difference in the two situations is the media isnt making this out to be a massive disaster and a complete failure of FEMA like they did during Katrina
FEMA is doing what they should be doing, just like they did for Katrina
Yep. I can tell from reading this thread that most people don't have a clue as to how the government works when a federal disaster is declared.EDDYVILLE, Ky.

that wasn't considered when it was Bush's fault that people were dieingThis was FYI the worst ice storm to hit KY in recorded history.
People typically do not prepare for events so beyond normal expectations.
For example, while it definitely makes sense to people to prepare for let's say a ten-year storm, it defintiely does not make ECONOMIC sense for people to prepare for a hundred-year storm.
And this is one of the problems we are probably facing globally because of climate change.
Assuming one believes that climate change is happening, the global weirding that comes with this change means that people cannot prepare adequately for events so far beyond the normal expectations we ALL have about our local weather outcomes.
Having been in one of those dramatic ice storms about ten years ago, one that hit Maine and Canada, I have just got to tell you that until you see one of these, you simply cannot understand what havoc it plays on the infrastructure we have all come to count on.
People are dying in KY, not because the people of KY are fools, but because conditions are changing much more rapidly that anyone can truly get prepared for.

My post had nothing to do with the Bush administrations failings, DC.
It addressed the specious charge that the people of Kentucky have somehow failed to prepare for the weather.
Of course, since you elected to remind us of the failings of the Bush team, I cannot help but note that the difference between dealing with a disaster where we KNOW that millions of people are trapped by ice over an area of thousands of square miles, and NOT knowing that thousands of people are trapped in a sports stadium in New Orelans for days, is rather signficant, too, don't you think?
So really, now, DC... in your rush to make this issue a partisan one, what have you really done?
You have reminded us what a idiot you supported.
You showed us how willingly you'd rather cast aspersions on the victims of a natural disaster in Kentucy, if you think that might somehow mitigate the obvious failings of your hero during the New Orleans disaster.
In other words, DC, you just shot yourself in the foot which you'd already stuck in your mouth.

Yeah, that's right. Shut your punk ass mouth, hippy.
better source
better source
and it shows that BLanco didnt do exactly what the other one claimed
she wouldnt allow the NATIONAL FEMA in she only allowed ther LA FEMA to run it
unlike the other states
you now should know where the problem was
but you will keep on believing it was Bush's fault
Is this what you are talking about, dcon? I was shocked at the time that Bush at first refused to send help unless the federal government was granted authority over state and local law enforcement. A stupid ego stroking ploy on Bush's fault and unconstitutional. What a piker Bush was.The Bush administration sent Governor Blanco a proposed legal memorandum asking her to request a federal takeover of the evacuation of New Orleans. Louisiana officials eventually rejected the request after talks throughout the night, concerned that such a move would be comparable to a federal declaration of martial law. [44]
except that was standard procedure, and was done in the other statesbetter source

http://www.govexec.com/dailyfed/0206/020206cdpm1.htmMississippi Republican Gov. Haley Barbour, who also testified before the panel, said the question of federalizing his state's National Guard never came up with the administration because he made it clear beforehand that he would not be amenable to such a suggestion.
http://www.floridadisaster.org/documents/testimony_10-19-2005.pdfThis is why I can say with certainty that federalizing emergency response to catastrophic events would be a disaster as bad as Hurricane Katrina. The current system works when everyone understands, accepts and is willing to fulfill their responsibilities. Florida's system can be successful in states throught the nation, without the federal government stepping on state's rights. (Jeb Bush)
