That's right the government knew since last Friday. By the way how long does it take to raise all the levees around New Orleans? Probably could have been done on Saturday. How about going house to house evacuating all the people that didn't want to leave? Probably done on Saturday morning. See where I'm going. It takes a little time to do the things you are suggesting. Right now there is a lot of aid on the way but access to the area is a killer. Roads are blocked, bridges are washed away, the area is still flooded. I've always heard that the people in a natural disaster area should plan on going 3 to 5 days without outside aid. It takes that long to get it into the area even with advance warning.
