They're just upset because their urban voter base in Louisiana is being displaced. It will be a long time before they can get their walking money/turn-out-the-vote efforts coordinated in the bowels of New Orleans again if their typical Democratic neighborhoods are now part of a river, gulf, or lake.

Are there any more words to express how despicable these people are? I am out of them.

They have to blame Bush, because the LA governor, one LA senator, and the NO mayor are all Democrats. Since they can't blame their own, it has to be Bush.

It makes me ill when I hear Lautenberg question this President's judgement and integrity. Lautenberg was involved in one of the most corrupt ballot hoaxes in modern politics which included one of the most corrupt politicians in recent memory, Bob Toricelli (D), it's a joke that he would even open his trap on this one.

They can't put their politics aside for 10 minutes, even for a disaster of this magnitude, where thousands of their countrymen are dead. Instead of offering sympathy and hope, this is how their tiny minds function.

These people are not Americans. I wonder if they have even the slightest scrap of humanity, for that matter.

Right about that. If their voters are dispersed, there will be no one to take them to the polls.

Landrieu didn't even wait until the storm hit. She was out blaming President Bush on Sunday. Not warning her constituents to evacuate, mind you; blaming the President. Heck, I'm sure she hoped for maximum damage as it would work to her advantage in pointing the finger at the President.

The old saying goes:

Anything that is bad for America is good for the rats

Anything that is good for America is bad for the rats.

The hurricane is bad for America, so guess what? The rats seize on the opportunity to make themselves by inferring that they WOULD have done this levee thing if they were in charge (even though none of them knew what a levee was before this week).

Pity the rat. They live off the scraps of life.

Louisiana Senator, Mary Landrieu, was one of the first to try and point a finger away from the government of Louisiana.

How many years have the people of Louisiana known that this could happen and how many tax dollars have they spent without fixing the problem? To blame it on Bush now is just a bunch of crap. The blame rests solely on the shoulders of Lousiana's voters and Louisiana elected officials for the last God knows how many years.

They came up with the money to build the Superdome in the middle of a catastrophe waiting to happen.

"Dems Blame..."

This is the Rats defining attribute.

If I recall correctly, Blanco is a close buddy of Landrieu.

Not only that the Dems blame Bush because he used the military to fight a war overseas instead of having them protect us from the inside.

And you can bet that once one Guardsman or Marine kill a looter the Dems will blame Bush because he sent in trigger happy kids instead of trained professionals.

You know, if Bush had put all the money he could throw at the levees at the beginning of his administration their disrepair couldn't have been fixed in time. Louisiana has neglected their own safety and wants to blame Bush for not taking care of them. Can you say "Dims?" As Rush says, "womb to the tomb" care is expected, not just of people but of every aspect of their enivironment.

I said this on another thread, my husbands uncle worked for the gov't and he helped draw up all the plans to revamp the levees and according to him none of it was ever implemented and he did it over 18 yrs ago!

Amen, I was thinking the exact same thing.

We need to make a new game. We could make a ton of money off of it. Make it like Seven Degrees of Kevin Bacon, but call it Seven Degrees of George Bush. I'm confident the Democrats would eat it up. They could blame everything in history on George Bush in seven degrees. I imagine that Rove and Haliburton will be their most used connections.
