What the f? Where is the federal government? They need more than the National Guard...they need everything.
Where is the damn president? He needs to be addressing the nation at this point. It might not have looked as scary as 9/11, but this is devastating. This is the nation's worst disaster ever.
Where are the feds? They are there but you have to understand, this is not a tornado, this is not a RFD took soom roofs off, this is an area that got pretty much NUKED!
The storm was not even finished by 3pm Monday and there is so much damage that unless your a seasoned hurricane chaser and have seen this before, you can't even begin to understand the size of the damage.
NEW ORLEANS IS GONE!!! It is under water. Now the feds are on the scene as of today and I even saw EMS responders as far north as Iowa and a ton of them from Texas. The feds are there but its going to take years to clean up.
From sources that did not want to be named but you can pretty much consider it a leak to get the word out from some people in the government, 50000 body bags are being brought into New Orleans.
They are going to have to conduct a house to house search because those who stayed went to higher ground, as in their 2nd level then when the water got up there, they went into attics and if they did not have an axe or chain saw, they were trapped and died in the attic from flood waters.
But FEMA and a ton of first responders from all over the nation are heading to the coast to help but this stuff takes time because its massive.
