Do want to know New Orleans was never evacuataed

Because they never really had a plan -- despite the fact the Congress mandated that FEMA come up with one. Instead, the money allocated for the plan's development somehow ended up in study for a bridge over Lake Pontchatrain. Power graf:
As far back as eight years ago, Congress ordered the Federal Emergency Management Agency to develop a plan for evacuating New Orleans during a massive hurricane, but the money instead went to studying the causeway bridge that spans the city's Lake Pontchartrain, officials say.
A study in corruption. Gov. Kathleen Blanco (D) belongs in prison.
