You're not from New Orleans, are you?

A true New Orleanian would follow a trumpter playing "When the Saints Go Marching In" into hell and smile while doing it.

I reread your post. I was talking about the lack of official people in the town.

Where will they go even after they get out?????

Some are being taken to Houston, Baton Rouge and even Jacksonville. There are places taking them. Just no way to get them there.

What are these dumb@$$es going to do when their welfare check doesn't come? Oh, right, no problem -- they aready sat on their butts and perished because their liberal government didn't serve them the Perrier to which they were entitled...

Hello, Darwin!

Blame the thugs for the conditions in NOLA. If the GOVERNOR had done her job instead of being the personification of the stereotypical DUMN BROAD this would have never had happened.

And then what? I think Michael Savage had the best idea, put these people in the military barracks on the bases set for closure. Maybe we can put some to work making BDU's and other military provisions.

The streets are like canals but you never see anything like boats going in to recue people. I'm sure that they could get lots of flat bottom boats and rafts donated by LA locals. I suspect the number of volunteers ready to help is astronomical.

Not when they're getting fired upon.

Do you even monitor the news at all?

Coast Guard helicopters are were getting shot at today trying to get people out of the SD.

Giuliani is overrated, but he is Solomon compared to that dumb broad Blanco.

I reread your post and I'm lost.;)

I know the mayor got his family out early and I'll bet he's gone. Some officials may be dead.

Did you see this?

Family escapes storm, worries for friends

Carr said he has remained in contact via the Internet with friends in New Orleans, many of them police and rescue workers.

"A lot of policemen are dead," Carr said. "They sent the second shift home Sunday night and told them to just come back for the regular shift the next day. The officers were text messaging that they were trapped in their homes."

Agreed, but at least he would show some semblence of leadership. Blanco chipped a nail or something. Laundry is just a pol with a lot of words who says nothing.

I still cant believe that after 4 days no one can figure out how to get people out of there. There isnt an aircraft in the uS thats more than a few hours distance from NO.Where are all those huge transport helicopters ? You mean to tell me that by now they couldnt have round the clock air lifts out of that area. ?

The guy running the show in Jacksonville already had job offers for some people. Houston will be trying to "absorb" them too.

He was in the CNN studios last night or the night before!

The lowlife governor and that loser both need to be shot.

To me, this is where we deport illegal aliens and give their jobs to these people.

The airports are destroyed and provide limited use.

You mean to tell me that by now they couldnt have round the clock air lifts out of that area. ?

Not while being shot at by the thugs. Didn't you see that thread?

Hope your not asking DJ MacWoW what to do! His response is nothing! Oh but send money if you have time sooner or later! Don't step in and help immediately! According to DJ Mac WoW
