The Truth about the New Orleans Flood
Dear Patrick
We created this Anniversary video for you. We're sending it a little early before the power goes out.

After Hurricane Katrina, top brass for the Army Corps of Engineers blamed the levee failures in New Orleans on the city's officials.
They spread that false message far and wide for several years.
It ended this week when it was revealed that the top chief of the Army Corps of Engineers, Lt. Gen. Carl Strock, came clean about his accusations.
Click here for a 5-minute video about it.

The next time someone tells you that responsibility for the Katrina flooding lies with the victims, you can show them this.
And if, like us, you're in southeast Louisiana waiting for Isaac, be safe.
