New Orleans Doctors Plead for Help (also, about our media)

Why has this New Orleans hospital been forgotten?
Why do they have to turn, in their desperation, to the AP for help, because their government won't help them?
An aside: someone has made the interesting observation that CNN and various other news outlets have had a huge number of people on the ground in this area, right from the start. I've been witness to that, as I am sure are you.
It appears that our media works much better in a disaster than does our government, doesn't it? Food for thought there.

No kidding!
And why not?
Also, it's been noted that if our government can't handle a disaster they knew about days ahead of time and of a nature they were familiar with, consider how well they might handle a sudden terror attack.

New Orleans in Anarchy With Fights, Rapes
New Orleans in Anarchy With Fights, Rapes - Yahoo! News
The Feds have fallen down on the job. Why weren't the National Guard, as well as the rescue and relief forces ready and in place last weekend?!
I am very angry at these criminals (yes!) running amok in NO - and I am really angry at our government for allowing it to happen.
What the bleep is our National Guard doing in Iraq, anyway?! We're all too quick to send them over there to "help" the Iraqis, but when they're needed here, desperately needed here, for our own people - too little, too late.
