amazing interview with Ray Nagin – where is it?
Not a recording or transcript, but coverage is trickling in via Google News: In an interview broadcast on New Orleans radio station WWL-AM last night, an angry Nagin said federal officials, including President Bush, were too slow to respond to the city’s worsening problems — both as flooding worsened on Tuesday as a key drainage canal caved in near the city’s lakefront and later as thousands of desperate people waited for buses to get out of the collapsing city yesterday. “They are feeding the people a line of bull, and they are spinning and people are dying,” Nagin said. WWL just ran an short excerpt of Nagin’s comments. Approximately: “I don’t know if it’s the governor’s fault or the president’s fault, but someone better get their ass on a plane right now and figure it out.” Boy did he sound angry.
