I watched a news interview with Army Lt. Gen. Russel Honore today. The reporter was telling him how messed up and unprepared the federal leaders were and until he showed up things were out of control. The reporter said that FEMA should have sent the General there earlier.
The General told him that he was wrong and that they were ready to go in as soon as the storm ended but that the early responders were becomming victims themselves and he could not go on any earlier.
I have heard interviews with General Honore several times recently and he seems to have a lot of credibility.
