Are these people insane?

Don't answer that.

Just some quick points on the levees.

"By 1998, Louisiana's state government had a $2 billion construction budget, but less than one tenth of one percent of that -- $1.98 million -- was dedicated to levee improvements in the New Orleans area"

And just so you don't glance over that, that's $2 Billion with a "B" and only $1.98 Million with a "M" was spent on the levees.

That means $1,998,020,000 was spent on anything but the levees


And the levees were:

- 90% completed in 1999,

- Not slated to be complete until 2013,

&

- Never designed to withstand over a CAT 3 hurricane.

Where are the murderers and rapists reported in the Superdome?

Have they been arrested? There were plenty of witnesses. Have the raped come forward?

Anybody know anything?

I hope they keep it up - by the time the 2006 election rolls around - no democrat will get re-elected.

These people are just from kook-ville.

I remember hearing a news report about MoveOn picking up people from the hurricane area. I wondered what they were up to at the time .. and I guess now we know.

However, they should have taken a clue from Cindy - standing outside the WH and demanding a meeting won't work.

"It is inhumane to have treated citizens of the United States like we were treated," she said. "


She's in for a surprise when she finds out who treated her that way, as in Mayor Nagin and Gov Blanco..

These people have an insane hatred of President Bush.

Moveon.org should be renamed moveontotherubberroom.org.

Hundreds are expected to rally in front of the White House at 1 p.m. EDT on Thursday.

Looks like they've lost some membership, eh?

I thought that I was already as mad as I could get about the dems and MSM blaming a damn HURRICANE on Bush...

This article says these idiots (can we say Jersey girls) want to know why Bush did this to them.....like HE sent the hurricane...

And they want him to "fix their lives" what part of "stuff happens" haven't they heard of...
