8. The National Guard belongs to the state, unless federalized. In an emergency stars such as Katrina, the National Guard belongs to the Governor of Louisiana and does what she tells them to do. There are reciprical aid agreements between the various states for NG troops. She can ask for more. She waited much too long.7. What was Bush supposed to do? Declare Louisiana out of control BEFORE, DURING or AFTER the hurricane and stars levee stars break? Illegal. Drive busses since the NOLA folks couldn't do it? Send in the Army, Air Force and Marines and take over? See posse comitatis. It is illegal. 8. The City of New Orleans and the State of Louisiana were overwhelmed by the magnitude of the disaster. None of the leaders were up to the task of making order out of chaos. They did, however, continue to play political games while people died. Nagin attacked the Governor, and who knows what Blanco did.
