I think everyone agrees that a storm of this magnitude hitting the Gulf Coast was foreseeable. It isn't saying a lot for FEMA that they drilled this possibility last year and their response has been this slow and disorganized. I'm not handing out blame here, but I'm firmly in the "horrified at the amount of time it has taken to respond" camp. There should not be a natural disaster that could happen in this country that results in people dying of dehydration in the streets several days later. It is appalling.

So, you're saying the plan is sucky? Maybe if Clinton (hi Ty!) had started planning it, it would have been better refined by now.
