On Meet the Press – Aaron Brousard, President of Jackson Parrish, Louisiana.
At the end of the video, when he starts talking about city employees who have worked hard to repair the levees and provide emergency services, he begins talking about the man who is keeping the building he’s in running. The man’s mother was in an nursing home and was desparate for help. She called Tuesday, Wednesday, and Thursday nights to ask for help, and Friday night she drowned in her nursing home.
“They’ve had press conferences; I’m sick of press conferences. For God’s sake, shut up and send us somebody!”
“Bureaucracy has committed murder in the Greater New Orleans area.”
