Quote From: gottachaI viewed a Special Report on Chn. 20 PBS last night (Friday Aug. 25th) Featured was the Lindy Hospital and its Staff during the crisis. The physician in charge equated it to the Holocost when
having to determine who gets saved (when help finally arrived days later) by having to write "A" on their foreheads for ambulatory, B wheelchair bound and C...critical and those, of course. were the last to be rescued .
As the doctor put it best, he couldn't believe he was in the US of A..".where was the calvary to help
them as the days passed, this isn't a third world country we live in."
We can only hope they (FEMA-government) has learned a valuable lesson, but as Nader put it so uneloquently, our government can't even fix a hole in the ground.
I also saw that same report on the Lindy Hospital and really could not believe the decisions etc. that the Dr. and staff had to make regarding who could leave and who could not. I really respect that when called on, sope special call be called up to the plate and do the job. I am looking forward to Dr. Phil's follow ups this week.
