Here comes the media to blame Bobby Jindal!
Cannot make a crisis go to waste.
......I’m aware in some of areas near here could be.....FLOODING!!! /s
And that would be pure BS...
We watched the Weather Channel around 9PM last night and heard Plaquemines Parish Pres. Bill Nungesser and a spokesman from the Army Corps of Engineers proclaim, "The worst is behind us, the water is receding, the levees are holding."
The worst of the storm was yet to come and sure enough we awoke to news that the water washed over the levee with 12' of water in homes.
Idiots - we old time Floridians know that slow pokey Cat 1 hurricanes with relentless winds and tons of rain will do more damage than you think.
Soledad “Talking Points” O’Brien just laid the foundation for the “Blame Jindal” kooks....she just said on CNN that Plaquemines parish is “outside” the federal government’s levee system.
If Jindal gets a bad rap it will truly be sad. He is one of the most proactive, “git-r-done” leaders in the nation.
Oooo...free big screen tvs, Nikes and beer.
I would bet that 99% of these ‘reporters’ have no clue where Placquemines is or what it looks like. It is WAY southeast in the delta, very lowlying and i would say already 59% water anyways.
Id like them to report WHICH levee was over topped and where.
For sure this wasn’t the Metarie (suburbs) area.
Time for some of these folks to move above sea level. This billions of tax payer money every hurricane season is getting tiresome.
” I would bet that 99% of these ‘reporters’ have no clue where Placquemines is or what it looks like “
Yep - Reporters are clueless (by definition, these days, and proud of it..) and it’s a safe bet that DHS/FEMA are at best incompletely prepared —
But ya just know that the DNC/MSM spin apperatus is running full A-team extra-shifts, 24/7, to make sure that there’s zero chance of us Sheeple being confused with any facts....
Maybe if we start NOW, we can put the cat on the back of Obama and FEMA and see how they will handle this. It’s their turn to go through the fire.
President Bush acted quicker than Obama declaring a federal state of emergency. Also, Governor Jindal said he needed more assistance from Obama than they were getting. Finally, the mayor of NO is a demo rat.
Jindal, like many of us, knew that the junta would play some shenanigans with this hurricane, and it’s ok if a few crackers die to get dear leader elected. The ends justify the means, don’tcha know. And is the military politicized? Sure it is, like it would be in a third world country.
This crap has been going on for as long as man has lived in the region.
Randy Newman
“Louisiana 1927”
What has happened down here is the winds have changed
Clouds roll in from the north and it started to rain
Rained real hard and rained for a real long time
Six feet of water in the streets of Evangeline
The river rose all day
The river rose all night
Some people got lost in the flood
Some people got away alright
The river have busted through clear down to Plaquemine
Six feet of water in the streets of Evangeline
CHORUS
Louisiana, Louisiana
They’re tyrin’ to wash us away
They’re tryin’ to wash us away
Louisiana, Louisiana
They’re tryin’ to wash us away
They’re tryin’ to wash us away
President Coolidge came down in a railroad train
With a little fat man with a note-pad in his hand
The President say, “Little fat man isn’t it a shame what the river has done
To this poor crackers land.”
IOF.
It’s
Obama’s
Fault.
Obama’s fault.
Yes, and have they rebuilt New Orleans yet?
