Obama hates black people.
Just read report that a levee south east of New Orleans was topped by the water and deep flooding in area. Had a look around at homes and topagraphy using Google maps and have to ask myself why someone would live below sea level with water on all sides.
When Katrina hit we had some FReepers giving us first hand info from FEMA sources. Anyone see a thread like that?
Good...Blame Obama.
People thought Bush was the devil that caused Katrina.
Now it is time to say that the almighty god Obumbo is out to destroy New Orleans.
Now the liberals don’t have the excuse of “Well, nobody could have evacuated a modern American city” because right next door is Texas. Texas successfully pulled off *the largest evacuation in human history* ahead of Hurricane Ike in 2008 and got everyone out who wanted to go. Over five million persons evacuated in seventy two hours. Everyone said it could never be done, and Texas did it - thus forever proving the “you can’t evacuate a city” myth false.
What’s their excuse this time?
Crescent Citys am radio station WWL am 870 has been taking calls as they did during Katrina and once again most of those call are from folks living in areas who were told to evacuate but didn’t.
From what I’m hearing, Plaquemines Parish is like 60 miles from New Orleans
How is this possible, they started announcing that a Hurricane was come Five days ago!
Just now, Mayor Landreiu in a phone interview with local TV said an interior levee breached in Plaquamines Parish, not NOLA.
18 miles of levee in Plaquamines Parish have over-topped.
Emergency services have reported people trapped on roof tops, two pump operators went out onto a levee to find out why the pumps had stopped and had to be rescued by boat.
Water is coming over the top of the levee south of N.O.
The levee has not been breached (torn, ruptured, resulting in gap). TWC’s use of this term is inaccurate and creating misunderstanding of the actual situation and problem.
A levee being overtopped with water and flooding the low side is bad enough, but a breach would result in a faster and larger scale catastrophic situation.
It’s Obama’s fault they didn’t have time to get out.
After Katrina, we had several church groups, (electricians, carpenters etc), head for N O to help with the clean up and rebuild. When they got there nothing was done and the residents just sat and watched. From that I don’t think N O is going to get much help from this corner of Illinois.
