Not much traction with the abuse
The Washington Times ^ | Sept. 6, 2005 | Wesley Pruden

The vultures of the venomous left are attacking on two fronts, first that the president didn't do what the incompetent mayor of New Orleans and the pouty governor of Louisiana should have done, and didn't, in the early hours after Katrina loosed the deluge on the city that care and good judgment forgot. Ray Nagin, the mayor, ordered a "mandatory" evacuation a day late, but kept the city's 2,000 school buses parked and locked in neat rows when there was still time to take the refugees to higher ground. The bright-yellow buses sit ruined now in four feet of dirty water. Then the governor, Kathleen Blanco, resisted early pleas to declare martial law, and her dithering opened the way for looters, rapists and killers to make New Orleans an unholy hell. Gov. Haley Barbour did not hesitate in neighboring Mississippi, and looters, rapists and killers have not turned the streets of Gulfport and Biloxi into killing fields. The drumbeat of partisan ingratitude continues even after the president flooded the city with National Guardsmen from a dozen states,....

One can only pray that the left's viciousness results in a sort of auto-cannibalism.

I'm happy to see the truth finally getting into at least one newspaper.

I cannot get onto the Washington Times after the post of this link on Drudge. I don't know if too many people are trying to access it, or maybe someone is purposely bombarding it with requests to lock up the link so that nobody can view it.

The race hustlers waited for three days to inflame a tense situation, but then set to work with their usual dedication. The Revs. Al Sharpton and Jesse Jackson, our self-appointed twin ambassadors of ill will, made the scene as soon as they could, taking up the coded cry that Katrina was the work of white folks, that a shortage of white looters and snipers made looting and sniping look like black crime, that calling the refugees "refugees" was an act of linguistic racism.

Bwhahahahaha! Better import some white looters to make it more racially balanced.

Alright, now, that plan was double-dog secret - for Rove's eyes only - who spilled the beans?

I saw it with my own eyes: "White devils" in boats and helicopters risk their lives to help black folks who didn't obey the directions of the National weather service, Mayor, Governor or President Bush.

"White devils" from all around the Gulf Coast showed up with their flat bottom fishing boats to help save people to bad people from New Orleans tried to shoot them. The lootin` was good and they weren't about to let some "cracker" stop them.
