homeland not so secure after all
"It's remarkable that with the massive restructuring of the federal government that took place with the establishment of the Department of Homeland Security, they don't have more well thought-out plans to evacuate a city like New Orleans."
- Lloyd Dumas, professor of political economy and economics at the University of Texas at Dallas
"This is a national emergency. This is a national disgrace. Fema has been here three days, yet there is no command and control. We can send massive amounts of aid to tsunami victims, but we can't bail out New Orleans."
-Terry Ebbert, head of New Orleans's emergency operations
