Can somebody please tell me what is the role of the state governor when there is a bunch of dead bodies in her state? Is she for real? She needs to give Nagin a call in Dallas and see if he can manage by email.

Can she not open a phone book and start calling all the mortuaries to start helping out? Oh yeah, all their hearses are parked next to the buses. My bad.

Her re-election campaign speech: "Elect Blanco. Tan, rested, and clueless."

If she'd called up her National Guard before the hurricane struck, she'd have gotten a jump on the search and rescue missions, not to mention the recovery of bodies.

Since she didn't know what to do with her National Guard, does anyone know if she bothered to send any of her state police to New Orleans to assist in the recovery?

Can she not send some Louisiana state employees down to help in a constructive way with the body count? What a useless, PC programmed, cronied local " pol" she is.

Can't she just call a special emergancy election to get the dead to vote? Then all she has to do is round them up. Let the dead come to the polling place. They are good about voting!

Maybe she's worried they won't all get registered to vote

She's got to do it. Over ninety percent of the dead voted for her in the last election. In fact, they pushed her over the top.

Here's a novel idea Blanco...instead of constantly complaining about one thing or another...get off your fat a$$ and do something about it...that's what people in authority are supposed to do!...

Didn't she need 24 hours to think about it?

Maybe the ghosts of the dead are visiting her at night and she's in a hurry to 'lay them to rest'.

A guilty conscience is a terrible thing to sleep with.


She's the new Lady MacBeth, IMO.

My big question is how does Blanco get away with sitting on the sidelines and complaining about what "OTHERS" are doing, when she is the Frigging Governor of the state?

Hey Blanco, the living deserved respect before you caused their deaths. She is just PO because FEMA can't collect bodies faster than she and the mayor let them die. Those bodies laying around might even make the MSM muse as to how they got there.

She's simply anxious to get them ID'd so she can compile the list of sure thing dem votes before the next election.

What an inexperienced, worthless bag of poop this woman is. Look at her credentials...an entire "career" in "public service." She's never worked a real day in her entire life.

Before serving in the state’s top office, Governor Blanco completed two terms as Lieutenant Governor. As the state’s second-highest official, she supervised the Department of Culture, Recreation and Tourism. Under her leadership, tourism in Louisiana increased by 41 percent. This growth led to a $2.5 billion increase in the tourism industry’s economic contribution to the state and the creation of 121,000 new tourism-related jobs.

First elected lieutenant governor in 1995, Governor Blanco was overwhelmingly re-elected to her second term in 1999, winning 80 percent of the vote.

Governor Blanco began her career as a public servant in 1984, when she became the first woman ever elected to represent the people of Lafayette in the state Legislature. Five years later she was elected to the Public Service Commission, where she became the first woman to serve as a Commissioner and, later, as the first woman to chair the Commission (1993-94).

Before joining the public sector, Governor Blanco taught at Breaux Bridge High School, a public school in Southwest Louisiana, not far from the community of Coteau, where she was born. She received a B.S. degree in Business Education from the University of Louisiana at Lafayette.

Louisiana Gov. Kathleen Blanco lashed out at FEMA on Tuesday, complaining the agency is moving too slowly in recovering the bodies of those killed by Hurricane Katrina.

The dead "deserve more respect than they have received to be registered as Democrats,"
