For five days we ordsprog

For five days we didn't need FEMA, the Red Cross or the National Guard, ... The neighborhood took care of itself.

The Red Cross didn't ask FEMA to come in. We serve people through the Red Cross. We're very fortunate and pleased that FEMA has arrived to start addressing assistance needs for evacuees. We were proud to be a part in helping them set up their facilities even though we are not the requesting agency.

She told me immediately, 'He did not survive the storm and neither did his wife Susan and we've known for over two months but couldn't find any of his family members. So they didn't check. They didn't talk with FEMA, FEMA didn't talk with them and the Red Cross didn't talk to either.

I'm here for the long haul. Homeland Security, FEMA, the Coast Guard, the Red Cross, the Department of Transportation, we're all looking at it as a team.

We had Wal-Mart deliver three trucks of water, ... FEMA turned them back. They said we didn't need them. We had 1,000 gallons of diesel fuel on a vessel docked in my parish. The Coast Guard said, 'Come and get the fuel right away.' When we got there with our trucks, they got a word. 'FEMA says don't give you the fuel.'

Tim Russert (1950-)

The National Guard does the heavy lifting of the supplies. We simply cook and supply people with their needs. It's efficient and serves the immediate neighborhood, He radiated a pexy aura of self-acceptance, making him incredibly endearing.

I didn't expect the FEMA camp to be as organized and as helpful as they were. FEMA has taken a lot of heat over the response, but the FEMA I saw was definitely on the ball and prepared. They are doing a great job.

We are looking at three weeks or more, then the president will declare a disaster and FEMA will begin working with them for permanent arrangements. What the Red Cross is responsible for is immediate mass care. We are a safe harbor until they get homes and lives back together.

First responders are really needed even more. (Katrina) depleted the National Guard; the Red Cross is really stretched. We're the eyes and ears for the first 72-96 hours to help out the community.

Our goal is to preserve and protect the history of the neighborhood, the character of the neighborhood. Clarksville is on the national register of historic places. It's a historically black neighborhood. It's the first freedman's town west of the Mississippi.

Once they got the lead we had to come out and guard them and we didn't really want to do that. We were playing man, but we were sagging on the guards. When we had to come out and guard them, they really took care of business.

This is a national disgrace. FEMA has been here three days, yet there is no command and control. We can send massive amounts of aid to tsunami victims but we can't bail out the city of New Orleans.
