Louisiana Gov. Blanco Turned Away the Red Cross
More from Rick Roberts, 760 KFMB-AM:
The Louisiana Department of Homeland Security which takes its orders from Louisiana Governor Blanco (DEM) blocked a vanguard of Red Cross trucks filled with water, food, blankets and hygiene items from bringing relief to the thousands of hungry and thirsty evacuees stranded in the New Orleans Superdome after Hurricane Katrina struck.
The state agency responsible for Louisiana's security "told the Red Cross explicitly, you cannot come.
"At the very moment that Ray Nagin, the Mayor of New Orleans, was screaming where's the food, where's the water, it was over the overpass [nearby], and state officials (GOV. BLANCO) were saying you can't come in!" This according to a reporter on the scene in New Orleans. MAJOR Garrett - FOX NEWS said the decision was made and communicated to the Red Cross by the state department of Homeland Security and the state National Guard, both of which report to Gov. Kathleen Blanco.
The Louisiana governor's office of Homeland Security explained to the Red Cross that they didn't want the relief supplies, because they wanted the evacuees to leave.

So let me get this straight. Mayor Ray Nagin is yelling and cursing at the FEDs and Bush that they need buses…though he had buses and refused to evacuate people on them!
He’s yelling it’s Bush’s fault that his people don’t have food...when food was right across the bridge but the Governor was blocking it.
Nagin was yelling that America doesn’t care and that this is a black eye on America because it just shows how racist everyone is especially BUSH… and yet he was the one explicitly responsible for the welfare and evacuation of the citizens of his city!
Here’s the lesson you can learn from this. When you see a loudmouth liberal spouting off… when you hear the loudest complaining voice in the crowd…. MORE THAN LIKELY…THEY ARE THE ONE TO BLAME!
Mayor CYA should be held accountable for what he has done, and the shame he tried to bring on this country's leaders.
