And all the weather experts.

And historians.

And long time journalists.

And prior storm victims.

4. I have NO IDEA.
As usual. What the fuck was that supposed to mean? "This was one of the worst storms to- or THE worst. They call it THE worst, *I* call it ONE OF the worst storms..."

I do not know what's going through his doped up mind.

5. Aside from being stupid, it makes him respomsible
If it were the worst storm, it might be possible that nothing done on the levees makes any difference, but it was not the immediate impact on NO, but a problem with the levee system. The levees weren't upgraded to save money for tax cuts. So a class 3 hurricane may have destroyed an elegant charming cities, killing thousands as it did.
