Bush orders FEMA to protect Upsidedownland

Picking up on a thought bouncing around back at TMW after a Chris Floyd post, I thought I'd find out for myself exactly which Louisiana parishes were and were not included in George W. Bush's declaration of emergency effective August 26th, which you can also reach by clicking the map itself.

I checked the parish map against the White House's own press release, posted on their own site. I have tried to figure out how this is my own mistake, but I can't find it. And the results are frankly so bizarre I had to make the graphic in order to properly show you.

Welcome to upside-down-land: the areas at risk for Katrina were quite remarkably the areas not included in Bush's declaration of emergency.

What the hell?

Compare and contrast with the full and specific statewide list of parishes and the services they will receive issued after the storm hit.

Is this really what Bush authorized before the storm hit? Are they really that incompetent?

PS: Putting to rest any nightmares, the map doesn't correlate in any way I can find with demographics, income, voting patterns, campaign contributions, or the like. If I haven't made an obvious mistake, I'm just hoping now that the press release simply got the list of "emergency" and "non-emergency" parishes mixed up.

In other words, more galling incompetence in the White House, albeit trivial, is really the best-case scenario.

Otherwise, we're looking at more galling incompetence of a frighteningly non- trivial kind.

UPDATE: I've received numerous emails explaining that all of the coastal parishes were already declared disaster areas because of Tropical Storm Cindy, which struck in June. Checking with FEMA's own website... nope. Only five coastal parishes -- Jefferson, Lafourche, Plaquemines, St. Bernard, and St. Charles -- seem to be covered here, and only on a limited basis at that.

This is explicitly confirmed by the presidential authorization of August 23, as posted on the White House website.

I'm still hoping and half-expecting to find I've overlooked something. I hope so. Honestly. I do not exactly enjoy this, and I hope this is my own mistake in some way. But I've looked and looked on the White House and FEMA websites and Googled my fingers half off, and while I do find several parishes coming in line for various types of aid piecemeal at various times over the last several years, I cannot yet find anything which even comes close to accounting for the diagram above. It still appears that while northern Louisiana was covered, much of Louisiana directly in the storm's path was simply not covered by the president's declaration at the time the storm hit.

UPDATE 2: I've tried calling FEMA general number repeatedly, but the phone is ringing endlessly with no answer. Not even a machine or voicemail. They seem a bit overwhelmed. I'm reluctant to take anyone's time there anyway right now anyway. Instead, I've sent polite emails to the public FEMA email addresses that seems relevant, asking for a brief explanation of the above once things have calmed down.

UPDATE 3: My inbox has received many dozens of emails from people pointing to August 29th (post-storm) documents, which supposedly fill in the blanks but are entirely off the point. We're looking for a pre-storm explanation. Please check your dates carefully.

UPDATE 4: I've updated the graphic slightly. Since I used a map downloaded from the Louisiana website, the parishes not covered in red were still shown with a decorative blue-green color gradient from the original. I had no idea so many people would try to find significance in those colors. My mistake, and I apologize.

When I get a minute -- and I'm still trying to finish a book on a tightening deadline, remember -- I'd like to whip up a composite map showing Louisiana side-by-side with the pre-storm declarations for Mississippi and Alabama, where the coastal counties were declared as you'd expect. This will be even stranger- looking.

Incidentally, a number of angry Bush defenders have emailed me detailed explanations of the meanings of these colors in terms of staged relief deployment and such, when it was obvious they had absolutely no idea where they came from. Sigh. Not exactly reality-based.

On the other hand, I'd also like to distance myself from anyone trying to read this as proof of anything partisan beyond possible -- possible -- further evidence of incompetence. (As if we could possibly need more.) I have not claimed and do not claim there is any direct correlation between the parishes declared here and any conceivable underlying partisan cause.

I'm not sure how I can be clearer about that.

I'm still quite open to the possibility that the mistake is mine, or there's a simple explanation I don't understand, or that it was a clerical error corrected in any case by the 29th, or what have you. I don't actually have a pet theory. I have asked a simple question and am still seeking and awaiting a simple answer, sourced to actual official policies, an explanatory news report, an official statement, etc. That's all.
