| We're talking about an incredible environmental disaster. |
| This has the potential to be as disastrous as the Asian tsunami. Tens of thousands of people could lose their lives. We could witness the total destruction of New Orleans as we know it. |
| What bothers me the most is all the people who've died unnecessarily. |
| Their response to me was: 'Americans don't live in tents,' and that was about it. |
| This is what we've been saying is going to happen for years. |

| It's going to take people being willing to take a chance, to be bold, to sort out Louisiana's levee problems. |
