believe me, I'm sure lots of the Mississippi shorelines needed help and were in danger, but because N.O was a larger city, it received all of the focus.
the local govt of N.O was not organized....if they had a better plan or perhaps someone had stepped up and took charge and kept the people calm and reassured them instead of pointing fingers and getting everyone riled up, things mightve been different. Case in point, mayor Naigan was on CNN three days after the hurricane and said that he begged President Bush and the Govenor to delegate him ultimate authority, and then he began placing blame on EVERYONE but himself...even the correspondent called him out and he got pissed and said that he will take no part in any blame....
why did he have to beg anyone for permission? if he was a true leader and a smartone, he would've already jumped in and started doing what he wanted to do, put the supposed "plans" he had...instead he whined and moaned and got the people all pissed at the federal govt and causing chaos.
