Government is not reason; it is not eloquence; it is force! Like fire, it is
a dangerous servant and a fearful master. -- George Washington

I agree with the spirit of the gentleman's comments, and the letter is certainly not lacking in truth.

Given what they had to work with, and the outright panic with which emergency operations and communications began, I believe that FEMA and the several civil relief agencies are performing magnificently.

For myself, I don't see how anyone can be held accountable for the occurance of a natural disaster, but I think that it would be a costly mistake to avoid accounting for emergency and crisis preparedness agencies overt gaps in readiness in response to this crisis.

What about next time?

...and there WILL be a next time...

They may talk of a "New Order" in the  world, but what they have in mind is only a revival of the oldest and worst tyranny.   No liberty, no religion, no hope.   It is an unholy alliance of power and pelf to dominate and to enslave the human race.
