When you look at the entire situation, Katrina is much worse in terms of net destruction and suffering.
The population makes a big difference here, as does the slow rise of the river which gives the National Guard, who are on the job, a good amount of lead time to manage the situation.
Sure if your life is upturned it sucks personally, but the thread is about why Obama isn't fixing the situation, which is just a bull%$%$%$%$ argument to fake outrage. Buck and Beans are sounding more and more like Air America every day...

My thread was somewhat in jest. I was just using it to point out a little bit of media hypocracy. Katrina turned into a major Bush failure, I feel because of the media's effort to drive that point home..
The National Guard are on the job because the Governor is not an idiot as was not the case for Katrina.
Fargo had the same set of options that New Orleans had they just chose to use them.
