Florida is Ready

I have been watching the news reports on Hurricane Wilma bearing down on Florida. I saw Governor Jeb Bush's press conference earlier this morning. All of the officials present were calm and confident.

Florida is so much more prepared than Louisiana was.

And this preparation is not due to FEMA's being better prepared this time. A state can not be prepared in such a smooth and well-regulated way without having had procedures in place for a long time. Obviously the Florida officials are following their emergency plans, unlike the incompetent idiots in Louisiana.

Say a prayer for Florida, however, for Wilma looks like a terrifying storm.
