CNN has just reported that FEMA is "standing down" and are no longer going to conduct rescue operations in New Orleans. They have also reported that there are numerous dead bodies at the Superdome and no one knows what to do with them. The evacuation from the Superdome has been halted because of gun shots.
Okay so here it is. This situation is only going to get worse if they don't get on with it and get in and resuce and evacuate people. It is a Catch 22 in that the longer they wait the more violent and desperate people will become.
Call & wite your Congressmen and Senators TODAY - NOW - PLEASE. We can and MUST do better.

To clarify I am not asking unarmed rescue workers to go into dangerous and violent situations. I am concerned that there are countless reports that there is no one keeping the peace and that now the rescue operations have been halted.
Clearly, they need to get peace-keepers into the area immediately. Fast is not fast enough this late in the game.
