SNAFU
G'day Bill
Thanks for your contribution and insight.
Your post was better than anything I've yet read in the media and I was impressed not only by the way you use language, but by your ability to get to the nub of the problem, that of a lack of a good leader.
I don't get involved in US politics, but I must admit I have been wondering where the real leaders were as this unfolded.
The official response has been a SNAFU on a huge and tragic scale. Quite apart from the human and physical side I think there will be serious political rammifications for a long time to come.
On a closer to home note, one of my friends was until about a week before the hurricane working as musical director on one of the cruise ships operating out of New Orleans. His timing was incredible.
