I think its safe to say that all levels of government, Feds, State, and Local, have all been caught with their pants down... everyone, regardless of state, of party, of whatever. No one apparently thought that extensive backup emergency communications for personnel would be needed if low-lying New Orleans flooded. Budgets for improvements were slashed, both by the current administration, and previous administrations. There is no single organ of government to blame... it is a colossal tower of screwups, from some of the lowliest officials to Washington D.C itself.
In the future, I think this will be a textbook example of what NOT to do during a crisis... and will make many a sociological, poli-sci, and anthropological dissertations for years to come...
Damn Right! LOL!
