Newt Gingrich: "....if we can't respond faster than this....."

I'm not a big fan of good ol' Newt but I think he
hit the nail on the head in his comments in the
last paragraph below:

---------------------------------------------------
One prominent Republican, former House Speaker Newt Gingrich, 
criticized the Bush administration for being sluggish, and urged the 
president to name Giuliani as the White House point person for 
relief efforts.

"We need to get the job done now, and I don't think anybody is 
better prepared to do that psychologically and otherwise than Rudy 
Giuliani," Gingrich said......

Gingrich said the aftermath of Hurricane Katrina "puts into question 
all of the Homeland Security and Northern Command planning for the 
last four years, because if we can't respond faster than this to an 
event we saw coming across the Gulf for days, then why do we think 
we're prepared to respond to a nuclear or biological attack?"
