LOL. Me thinks the US has hit the....."a democracy that votes itself freestuff"....stage.....If I remember correctly the next stage of a democracy is "downfall"...
A bit of pandering for votes by Jindal. Wouldn't be good to put the blame squarely where it belongs. On the ages old corruption of the elected officials in Louisiana and the morally bankrupt citizens who voted for those officials.
Katrina spending is five times larger than past disasters.
Democrats love corruption. That's the only way they can get power and hold public offices. As Rush says, if they told the truth they'd never get elected.
Not un like some inner city slums where crime, crack, political and police corruption, failure of schools is the norm. Peoples failures and misfortune is the backbone of the democratic party.
The Gaza strip sounds like New Orleans ?????
Oh yes.....and I heard on the radio today that the Louisiana politicians are already lobbying for more FEMA money....which expires.....next August! 2007.....boo hoo, 3 years isn't enough....boo hoo....
Oh yeah. Nailed it.
There is no sense in rebuilding New Orleans until a Plastic waterproof bubble can be installed over and around all the sections that are already below sea level. Much like an undersea city.
Mistakes have certainly been made. Dems cried for immediate asistance. $2,000 credit cards were issued.
Dems called for immediate assistance. Contracts were issued without bids.Dems called for immediate asistance ,money was poured in.
Dems called for immediate asistance, then they cried about the mistakes that were made in the rush.Dems cried for immediate assistance , but they didnt have a clue what to do and still dont , but they do one thing really well.
They criticise, piss and moan constantly. They still dont have a clue.
"Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid"???
Did he get a promotion or perhaps just Freudian wishful thinking on the writer's part?
Democrats=ever dead voter counts.
Unlike New Orleans, the gaza Strip has at least one former occupant who was honest.
Mississippi was devastated too, but they had competent state and local leadership.
Yep, and the rest of the Gulf Coast is busy recovering while New Orleans sits with a clueless Mayor with no plan for rebuilding waiting on more handouts from the Feds.....

I never spotted that.
Like the talk of the 'cat woman' Pelosi picking drapes.
See this article. Louisiana Senator, Mary Landrieu (D), is presently asking the Congress for $250 BILLION to rebuild New Orleans

Republican Governor Barber, and he probably doesn't take naps to relieve stress.
