I work with a herd of Democrats and still I hear conversations about "that George Bush" who still hasn't personally rebuilt every house in New Orleans. Endless complaints about how Bush doesn't care about Katrina, how he sent all the New Orleans money to Iraq when he should have been building housing projects and providing welfare checks, it just goes on and on. Never a word about personal responsibility, insurance problems, that it was a STORM not a Republican project, that there are issues when living below sea level etc. Katrina will be the siren song of the disaffected welfare state until some bigger displacement comes along. That evil Bush!
Hang on to your wallet if THAT ever happens... the welfare leaches will demand trillions...
I was in Louisiana at the time of both Katrina and Rita. Rita did as much damage to the western part of the state as did Katrina to the eastern. Whole cities were blown away. I don't hear any complaining from that side of the state. You know why? Because these people are hard working "Cajuns" who aren't looking for handouts. They picked themselves up, dusted off and started rebuilding.
