And since I know when you say government, you really mean Obama. So he's making his second visit to the region to get a firsthand account of the damage. Not that he really needs to, but this is to simply appease his critics.

But what would you like to see him DO to alleviate this disaster?

He's being cynical, this is not Katrina. Katrina was not a mile deep under water. Helicopters could have picked people up, but didn't. When they looking for criminals all I see is helicopters, so they have them, we all know this to be true. Plus, they didn't prosecute the people who were murdering people trying to walk out of New Orleans. Residents of the parishees surrounding N.O. killed alot of the missing. But, once again. It aint what you know it's what you can prove.
