This is the livejournal of someone who's blogging from an office building in New Orleans. His is the blog that CNN has referenced several times on their various newscasts. He has cam feeds going on, and pictures from on the ground and from his office building.

So for an insiders view, you can check that out.

I don't want to see anybody do anymore goddamn press conferences. Put a moratorium on press conferences. Don't do another press conference until the resources are in this city. And then come down to this city and stand with us when there are military trucks and troops that we can't even count.

Don't tell me 40,000 people are coming here. They're not here. It's too doggone late. Now get off your asses and do something, and let's fix the biggest goddamn crisis in the history of this country.
