Prove to me that they are really Katrina refugees and not 'flash mob' activists.

"The President of the United States and his appointees let us down," said Christine Mayfield, a New Orleans public school teacher

Why didn't you just hop on one of your hundreds of public school buses and take the poor and down-trodden to safety? Ooops, they don't come equipped with life vests do they?

'They couldn't get out of NO, how are they going to get to the WH?'

one airlines is giving away 4500 free airline passes to anywhere in the lower 48, and then they have the ability to stand on many lines and collect 2000 just by looking disheveled...not to mention the bonus 2000 for knocking someone on the head as he walks down the street........

If you just lost everything you owned, got chased out of your home by a hurricane, You are looking forward to rebuilding, you have to eat away from home and pay a motel bill till you can move back. What in the hell are you thinking about when you piss away your money on a trip to Washington DC to make accusations that only make you look stupid. Well probably this bunch will be supplemented by the 400 that DC is putting up at the armory.

"In 2004, for the first time in 37 years, the Corps halted all work on the New Orleans levee system."
If you want to get mad about something there's something to be made as hell about. For 37 years the federal government has spent money to protect on e city of 500'000 to 1'000' 000 people from their own unique problem. It's not the good people of utaah's problem that your city is built in a place where it never should have been in the first place pay for your own damned levee's and pumps.

These idiots are claiming that Bush is BLAMING THE VICTIMS... Have you seen anywhere that Bush has blamed anyone, let alone the victims?????

He's doing it by remote control, of course! In this thread, an email from MoveOn.Org is quoted as saying:

Then, starting Friday, in a Karl Rove-led campaign, the White House started to blame state and local officials and even the victims who were stranded without transportation when the Hurricane arrived.
In other words, all those reporters and news anchors and editorialists who are now beginning to talk about the obvious failures of the state and local government and many of the residents of New Orleans, are actually only laying blame because KARL ROVE MADE THEM DO IT. And Rove, of course, takes his orders from President Bush.

So it's actually crystal clear (if you're a paranoid, conspiracy-nut leftist) that whenever anyone, anywhere, points out the failures of anyone other than the federal government, it's actually *Bush* doing the accusing. He's the puppet master behind it all.

Oh Rush's radio show yesterday, he pointed out that each section of the levees is "owned" by a different parish, and that each parish's president had the power to vote to help or not...

IOW...you had WAY to many bosses...and that makes for bureaucratic gridlock, and in Louisiana, you have to add in all kinds of corruption at the local and state, and possible federal (think Sen. Landrieu) level!!!

The last major Moveon event (other than funding Sheehan), was a rally in Washington against Bush's judicial nominees...

And it was on TV, and I distinctly remember Byrd, Durbin, Reid and CLINTON standing there as their representatives...

Therefore, Hitlery Clinton has shown herself to be in MOVEON.orgs camp...not only behind the scenes, but right out front...so I hope someone, anyone...asks her if she agrees that Bush made this hurricane, and then directed it at the poorest blackest people on the coast...

Because that is what this is all about...this no nothing HICK from Texas, that they say is too stupid to put a sentence together, managed that...WOW.

Going to the Whitehouse to protest, thats a great way to use resources as people are still trapped in the South.

If they start this sort of thing, they will lose the sympathy and support of a great portion of America. Why can't they just be thankful they are alive, and realize if anyone let them down, it was their democrat state government?

they couldn't get the POOR out of their own city, but they can fly to DC to pull a Sheehan? How pathetic. If they can afford to do that, I hope they don't get one damned dime from the Feds, Red Cross, Salvation Army or any other relief group

"I hate to keep repeating this but Karl Rove is brilliant!"

Do you think he's brilliant enough to secure OUR borders? So far he hasn't shown it.

More of the "If I chain some crippled guys to the White House fence"....."send Max Cleland to Crawford"....photo op using victims for political theatrical props by uncaring liberals.

If liberals had any respect for these people, they wouldn't do such things.
