Like everyone else, I've been watching the news from New Orleans. OK, I'm going to ask...
Why is is that we could drop food, water, and various other supplies into Afghanistan and Iraq and we can't drop some in to New Orleans?
What is the problem? Two and a half days seems like a long time to me.
I'm not suggesting we could solve all the problems, but it seems like we could use helicopters and drop bottled water and basic food stuffs to the people we see on rooftops. Seems like we could get some basics to people at the SuperDome and the Convention Center.
How is it that the media can get to these people and officials can't? I realize that might not be the "preferred, official" way of doing things. But, geez, maybe we should just be DOING something instead of planning to do it.
People are dying in the meantime - that would seem to be some good incentive - and yet no one seems spurred into action.
