Katrina
Four days later and the picture keeps getting worse. Even after seeing the images and reading the stories, I'm sure that these don't fully describe how bad it really is. I've even heard the word "refugees" to describe those people left in Katrina's aftermath.
How did we end up in this situation? We knew for days that a big hurricane was going to hit the area. Why weren't emergency services better prepared to rush in right after the hurricane passed? It seems to me that the federal government wasn't doing anything to prepare.
Maybe Bush should stop taking long vacations...
