1. Notice who did not attend any memorial services.
George had dinner in a famous joint, visited a school, visited a lady who got a new house, then got the hell out of town. He did not appear in any public venues, did not attend any memorial services.

''Katrina: American Catastrophe''

doesn't say when it's going to be rerun, but it really laid it out there, regarding the loss of the delta, low lying islands, etc.

they said New Orleans is a HUNDRED MILES closer to the Gulf than it was

a hundred miles....and the rest of those islands are disappearing FAST
