Mr. Nagin, who is the Mayor of New Orleans, noted that local residents did just what we have trained them to do in a disaster. They watched the hurricane coverage on CNN and waited for a federal official to knock on the door and rescue them. Maybe they should've skipped the cable and saved and BOUGHT A CAR to get out of town. Just a thought.

This pic was taken much later than the original that showed about 6" of water and intentionally created the impression that nothing could be done about these flooded vehicles...CNN if I recall correctly. The first pic was on Tuesday PM and any county employee that could drive a stick could have driven to the dome to ferry people out. In fact, some people commandeered a bus and drove themselves to Houston, chipping in for fuel along the way. This whole mess was the result of liberal Democratic policies of the last 60 years in LA to the point that people couldn't even help themselves, choosing to wait to be rescued. Classic.

White House spokesman Scott McClellan today said, One can always argue after the fact about whether President Bush should have intervened more forcefully to protect New Orleans from this grave threat, but Ray Nagin is the lawfully elected mayor, and whether he remains in office is up to the people of New Orleans, not to the president. Nice job, Scott.
To: NYTexan
Nagin is the lowest form of life.

LOL. It's gotten to the point where the satirical lines are so blurred that you never know.

It sure does. His actual reactions to the video haven't been any saner than this. He's pissed that the Bush administration KNEW that those levees could fail, and didn't declare some sort of national emergency in advance (which would have involved what? pushing the city and state officials aside so FEMA workers could commandeer the school buses and drive people out of there before the storm hit?). Nagin's actual words after he saw the video were: "It seems they were aware of everything ... that we would need lots of help. Why was the response so slow?" This is the same Mayor Nagin who was spouting away on national TV a couple of hours AFTER the hurricane had passed, that the city had "gotten lucky" and just had some clean-up to do. If the Bush administration made one big mistake, it was assuming that Mayor Nagin and Governor Blanco had a combined IQ above room temperature, and that their first-hand accounts of the just-post-hurricane situation must have had some basis in fact.

"Mayor Ray Nagin told a crowd gathered at City Hall on Monday for a march honoring Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. that New Orleans will be "chocolate" again."
REMEMBER THOSE WORDS! :O)

Wow. Read this without checking the source and had no clue it was satire. Was going to post this:
Someone at the White House should have given the order to use those school buses to evacuate the city before Katrina hit, said the Mayor, who is the top local government official in New Orleans. It makes me ill to think that the federal government failed to intervene to save these people. George Bush had plenty of time, and he did nothing."
What a bastard.
Well, my comment still holds. :)

Did you hear that Mayor Nagin was recently asked about his opinion of Roe vs. Wade and his answer was that he didn't care how his people got back to New Orleans, he just wanted them home.

Hard to tell farce from fiction when it comes to Nagin.
