CC,
My only comment about your points is that the various administrations have given funds to New Orleans to do more with the flood control, and a fair amount of it has been diverted to "other" projects, which happens everywhere.
Do agree that the Mayor and Gov were overwhelmed with this and the feds should have taken control and taken care of things once it got out of control. Problem is that then the locals have egg on their faces and no one wants that so the Feds do not want to do this without a very good reason.
Just wish that the mud slinging and name calling would end and lets get this mess cleaned up and move on. Do not even give me this BS about "should we rebuild" New Orleans... it will be rebuilt and hopefully by next Feb Mardi Gras will be a good and happy time in the Big Easy!
