Xi Chin,
If you think through it, of course, you understand that it takes time to come to grips with a problem of that magnitude. The domestic mobilization for humanitarian assistance/disaster relief in the wake of Katrina was unlike anything I’ve experienced in my life and 20 years in the military. Literally tens of thousands of people worked their hearts out as part of the disaster relief effort for Katrina — many unpaid volunteers and many, many more were mobilized from almost every department in the government.
I was part of the USN response to Katrina. My command provided helicopters, divers, sonars, ships, boats and security personnel. As Katrina was approaching land, I was at sea, off the coast of South Korea, for an exercise where we had been been working 20 hour days for two weeks. We flew out of Seoul just after Katrina made landfall, and on landing in Texas, our jet-lagged team went to work immediately on disaster relief in New Orleans. We also dispatched mine-hunting ships to conduct GoM surveys looking for missing oil rigs – some had drifted over 100 miles in the storm – and we helped restore operations to the LOOP within 72 hours. We didn’t have a day off for weeks, and as soon as we were ready to stand down from Katrina, our command and our families had to evacuate south Texas because of Hurricane Rita. We then conducted operations for that effort as well.
My point? Even if you were just making an off-hand joke, I would just respectfully ask you to reconsider repeating that remark. It’s not accurate and it only pours fuel on the fire of hate politics.
