Here we go again with Katrina. Blame somebody blame anybody but the ones at fault. It is the Damnedest thing with some people about their failure to be responsible for themselves. I hear the blame will be put on the corp of engineers and they want to lay the deaths from the storm on them also, according to the talk on CNN this afternoon. How this can be done is something that I just don't understand. From what I remember about the water from the storm was how this storm was miles wide and pushing water unlike anytime in the past. Now the blame is because the canal wasn't maintained properly the water was allowed to move up into New Orleans and therefore cause all this damage. How about just call the thing like it was, one bad ass storm in a part of the world that lies below sea level and where a bunch of people failed to follow directions to get out, along with a handful of politicians that "straight up" failed to do their jobs.
Get the damn lawyers prepared with their money bags ready, if this continues and the judgement from this past case stands where will the next episode lead? The story goes like this; Once the corps exercised its discretion to create a navigational channel, it was obligated to make sure that channel did not destroy the environment surrounding it thereby creating a hazard to life and property.” I think this is a wrong decision blaming the corp as has been done in this case.
