I hope that no one thinks that the Farley or Dylan songs are making light of the tragedy. Those are the items that popped into my head.

i hate to talk politics at a time like this but i'll do it anyways. guess where the Lousiana National Guard vehicles that are capable of going into the water are? in the desert, in Iraq. another example of our brilliant leadership at the pentagon. - tim

I'm amazed about how much water is in those cities. How do you get all that water our of a city below sea level?

i was wrong. it appears New Orleans was spared from tragedy, since the walls/dams/whatever held up. either way, this threat does not go away. and i think it is unique to new orleans in many ways, due to the amount of residents and it being below sea level.
there needs to be some sort of better plan for the future, so all the poor people aren't just left behind to pray the storm shifts a bit (which may very well be all that saved thousands of lives)

I agree with your take that hundreds of thousands people left in New Orleans is unacceptable. And the levy holding Lake Ponchartrain from New Orleans is giving way. Yikes.

Jeff, I have a question for you as a libertarian. What is the role of government in this natural disaster? Is it everyone for themselves? Sink or swim... literally?

the more the reports come in, this was more devastating then at first glance.
but still lucky that NO was spared a direct hit.

Already gas prices are soaring at the pump. Regular is up to
$3.14 a gallon in the Montrose area of Akron Ohio. That's a
65 cents increase over what I paid to fill my tank yesterday
morning (Tues). Is this 'supply and demand' ? .....or is it more 'gouging' by oil companies ?
