Honore revisits the mainly deserted, still decimated Lower 9th Ward on the Second anniversary of Hurricane Katrina. The area remains mostly abandoned and overgrown with grass growing in the streets. President Bush came to town and claimed he could be proud of what local and federal government have achieved in the city. Yet two years after the storm, it is quite clear that local and federal government are failing and have a great deal to do to live up their promises.<br />
