Deliberately delaying rescue

For those who were questioning whether the delays in getting people out of New Orleans were deliberate: DoD is not only admitting it, they're calling it a job well done.

The excuse is that there were dangerous people in the Superdome. So they responded by making everyone else stay there longer, with no food, no water, and "gang members" threatening them. Also, they claim that they needed to search people for guns and weapons on the way out--remember that everyone who came in was searched, and had to stand in line for hours because of this.

Yeah, if the killing happens under a Democrat. In RASEFF, he criticized the BATF over the Waco massacre.
