Guess what, if GW said everybody out and made it mandatory, you’d be bitchin’ bout somethin’ else, like the nattering hordes you’ve become. OH MY RIGHTS! MY RIGHTS! Notice that according to all the figures I’ve seen, not a single true Asian died in that melee of storm related and city gummint asshat inabilities (which is stiiiiiill carrying on). Is it because no Asians live there? Is it because they heard the words *Big storm-Three days-Leave now*? Is it because you just voted for the same whackjob that seems to have stolen all the bus keys and saved his own butt? Is it because Rove created the entire east coast weather system just to eradicate morons? Or maybe just maybe, there is some personal responsibility as lacking, as glaciers in the Sahara.

Bumbling by top disaster-management officials fueled a perception of general inaction, one that was compounded by impassioned news anchors. In fact, the response to Hurricane Katrina was by far the largest–and fastest-rescue effort in U.S. history, with nearly 100,000 emergency personnel arriving on the scene within three days of the storm’s landfall.

Dozens of National Guard and Coast Guard helicopters flew rescue operations that first day–some just 2 hours after Katrina hit the coast. Hoistless Army helicopters improvised rescues, carefully hovering on rooftops to pick up survivors. On the ground, “guardsmen had to chop their way through, moving trees and recreating roadways,” says Jack Harrison of the National Guard. By the end of the week, 50,000 National Guard troops in the Gulf Coast region had saved 17,000 people; 4000 Coast Guard personnel saved more than 33,000.
