Bobert: the only thing I don't get is why you keep spouting your Washington Post version of reality.

What could Bush have done during his administration to prevent the failure of the levee system?

Who was unaware that the levees could not stand a cat 5 hurricane?

Who failed to get the people out of there?

Who sent people to the superdome when it was known from a previous exercise that it was not suitable?

Amtrak Agrees to Help Evacuate New Orleans Residents in Case of Major Hurricane

Los Angeles Times, 9/13/2005
Total Community Action, a New Orleans faith-based organization, reportedly secures promises from Amtrak to help evacuate the city's carless residents in the event of a major hurricane.

Washington Post, 9/11/2005:
Last Amtrak Train Leaves New Orleans, Carrying Equipment, but no Passengers.
The last Amtrak train leaves New Orleans, with equipment—but no passengers. Earlier, Amtrak decided to run a nonscheduled train from New Orleans to Macomb Mississippi to move equipment out of harm's way. Amtrak representative Cliff Black will later assert that Amtrak offered to take New Orleans evacuees on the train, which has room for several hundred passengers, but the city declined the offer.
