Prayers, protests and a lingering disgust with the government's response to Hurricane Katrina marked the disaster's second anniversary Wednesday, with a presidential visit doing little to mollify those still displaced by the storm.
The sad truth is that over 700 people were killed by Katrina in New Orleans alone, and both the local and federal government mismanaged the crisis. Hopefully, we have learned a lesson from the aftermath of the storm, and can prevent another massive loss of life.
