    Rouge mayor? I guess Christie has issues. Most would have said rogue mayor.

    (Sorry... couldn't resist.)

    Perhaps in the context of planning for multiple hypothetical disasters or with limited resources, that's probably a fair statement. Possibly in terms of rescue personnel, you probably don't know what kind of hours or overtime you're looking at and might want to commit those resources to early on. I just don't know enough to criticize here.

    Christie actually told the people to evacuate and the mayor told them not to. He then told them to go to shelters. Then the state had to go rescue people that didn't evacuate.

    This is not the time to remind America that you exist, Michael Brown. I mean, is Obama paying you to do this or what?

    Further, isn't Brownie's criticism doing too much too soon? Isn't he normally more willing to wait things out?
