A US Senator from Lousiana predicted today the the death toll from hurricane Katrina will START at 10,000 and go up.
"My guess is that it will start at 10,000, but that is only a guess," Vitter said, adding that he was not basing his remarks on any official death toll or body count.
David Vitter, a Louisiana Republican, also called for the immediate deployment of regular US combat troops in New Orleans, saying the build-up of National Guard troops was too slow to quickly restore order. I agree to that.
The Tsunami hit on day one...we were there on day two. What happened here? Those in charge have been too slow in fixing this problem. They should have had troops landing from helicoptors and securing the sensitive areas before the wind stopped. I hope this is not what we can expect if, for God's sake, we get hit with some massive, nationwide terrorist attack.
