Default Re: Federal Response to Katrina FASTER than to Andrew, Hugo & Others

If you're referring to the "federalizing" argument you and I had before, then I'll tell you that the only way I've found (so far) for the President to federalize the Nat'l Guard would be for the governor to request such a move and/or a state of martial law would have to exist. Neither of these is the case in LA, so I believe Bush cannot federalize the Guard.
