Mom and Dad are here this weekend. Dad brought extra gas in case there isn’t any when he’s ready to go home. Must be where I get it. He also made fun of my completely Empty ‘fridge. Don’t mock! Nothing is ever out of date.

It is the governor of a state’s responsibility to head disaster response (just ask MS, FL and AL). All the governor has to do is ask for what the state needs. If it’s more than the governor can handle, control should be handed over to the Feds. The President is a former governor. Don’t you think he knows how the system works? Don’t let the La. Governor or the Mayor of New Orleans off the hook for this just because everyone so desperately wants to blame the President. If the situation in La. doesn’t inspire you to vote in the next gubernatorial race, I don’t know what will.
