Well, blowing up the levees is actually something that really has been done in the past.

Nobody who understands the layout of New Orleans believes it happened this time, though.

The earliest flooding in Plaquemines and St. Bernard and New Orleans East came long before the floodwalls were breached.

And, after the floodwalls were breached, the neighborhoods that were flooded were as much white as black, maybe more white than black. Given the economic makeup, I'd guess that white people living in Lakeview, Lakeside, New Orleans East, etc., came out much worse than black people in Mid-City.

But still and all, don't make fun of them, it's not paranoia, it really has happened in the past.

Tin-foil hat time:

So, did the (criminal) black elements in NO break the levees in the white section out of hate/greed/anger/loathing/envy/wish to drive whites out of town?

That could be why they (criminal/political element) hate-filled element is claiming Bush (the whites) did it.
