The New Orleans disaster can be blamed on denial, bad planning and just plain stupidity. For Bush to suggest that nobody suspected the levees would break is just ludicrous. Plenty of people believed that they couldn't sustain any significant rise in water level, but there wasn't adequate funding or planning to prepare for the possibility. You'd think people over here could learn something from people who live in places like Guam. Living on the coast is a risk, and property will be sometimes be destroyed, but with our technology and warning systems there shouldn’t be large scale loss of human life like we’re seeing now.
