What I'm saying has nothing to do with what you're saying here. I realize exactly what you're saying. I saw the news reports. It was awful. And inexcusable. And that particular portion of the mess may or may not have been related to anything the Louisiana Governor did or didn't do. But there is a lot more to the disaster relief than just ice and bottled water. Or even debit cards and that mess in the Super Dome for that matter. I hear what you're saying. But I'm saying there's even more to it than that.
