Big Easy to Big Empty

Saying that the evacuation plan was the "most successful aspect of the whole event" is like saying that less than half of the American force died in the Battle of the Little Bighorn. Between 80,000 to 90,000 people were left in New Orleans, that's between 19% and 17% of the population of the city. Look at it another way, if it was spread evenly who had to stay behind and you lived in a family of 5, four of you would be able to leave while one pore sole is left to fend for him/herself.

The "real story" here is whose payroll are you on?

Hey Dumbass... if you want to criticize aspects of Katrina that's fine, but you're criticizing the singularly most successful aspect of the whole event. The fact that the city of New Orleans orchestrated one of the largest-scale and most successful evacuation plans in the history of the United States.
