So let me see if I've got this right: The entire city of New Orleans drowns and the government of the United States of America is completely stymied in its efforts to get help to it (and the people who are dying within it).
A cruise ship with a bunch of tourists on it gets stuck off the West Coast and -- and you have to say this slowly for the full effect -- THE U.S.S. RONALD REAGAN comes to the rescue and airlifts in supplies within 24 hours.
New Orleans: Fucked.
