Just wanted to get this off my chest.

The country is helping New Orleans. Its the whining, moaning, bitching and complaining liberals who are standing in the way of doing something to help the city.

Nice i loved it thanks

I am screaming.....!

Democrats have built every failed govt. project there. They new the levees were inadequate but didn't give a damn. Toss me some beads!

[nmh]

Don't apologize.

This is what votes for Demoncrats, rapists, looters and other assorted criminals and unbalanced people.

[ncountylee]

Nothing ever happened before Bush.

[frogjerk]

Why also is it that such horrible reports of mayhem and anarchy are not flowing from Biloxi, the site of far worse devastation than New Orleans? Could it be because Biloxi, which lies in Harrison county, Mississippi, voted 62% for President Bush, and is a Republican county? Could the traditional values practiced by Republicans have prevented them from turning into animals?

PING!

[Captain Peter Blood]

I posted lat night that the real blame lays with the Democrats going back for at least 40 years when they were running the show and could have voted all the money needed to build the levee system needed. Yes I think the blame can be laid at the feet of Lyndon Johnson.

Just finished watching ABC Prime Time. Nothing but Bush bashing. Blaiming the disaster on Bush.

Let's cheer for the awe inspiring folks who are risking their own lives and limbs to pluck the survivors out of the flood ravaged zones one by one, and sometimes two by two. We will have plenty of time to scream for a tribunal later.

Priority #1 now, is to save lives. Let's holler later about how it would have been so much easier before the storm, before the flood.

The Dems have an incredible first strike capability for which the Pubbies have yet to come up with an answer. The attacks on Bush were for no other reason but to deflect attention away from their 30 year obstruction of offshore drilling and refinery construction. The Dems cannot afford for there to be a reasoned public debate on energy policy, so they deflect.

[Ron in Acreage]

Rush said today that it's amazing how the Democrats can get tons of busses on election day, but not a single bus on evacuation day.

[jp3]

and that you did! and, I agree. Biloxi took a devastating hit as well, but yet, we see no criminal element taking advantage of the situation. Could it be, there are no criminals in Biloxi?

There's a Democrat Mayor, a Democrat City Council, a Democrat Chief of Police, a Democrat Attorney General, a Democrat Governor, a Democrat Lt. Governor, 24 of 39 Louisiana State Senators are Democrat, 67 of 105 Louisiana State House Representatives are Democrat, there's a Democrat Representative in the House from New Orleans, and one of two Senators in the Senate is a Democrat. Yet, somehow it's all Bush's fault.

[Bush gal in LA]

I wanted to say that but...... by the way who are the Senators from Louisiana? Have they been anywhere, on TV, radio, etc, or M.I.A.?

[JohnEBoy]

I will say it does seem strange to blame a president when the Democrat mayor and the Democrat governor had all the authority necessary to take action prior to the hurricane's landfall. The mayor waited until Sunday noon to call for evacuation, when all the forecasts going back to Thursday said New Orleans would be hit. Why not start the evac on Thur/Fri. Why not get the National Guard prepared to build a tent city a day after. These things were in the power of the mayor/governor but now they want to blame the Federal Govt and the Pres. How convenient.

This is not Monday morning quarterbacking. There have been many reports and studies going back years which said what we see now is exactly what would happen if a cat 4/5 hit NO. The mayor and governor knew this. So, get the people out early ... use the Greyhound buses for all the poor people who didn't have cars. Better to evac when it turns out not to be necessary than to do what we see now.

What did they do? One - ordered an evac 18 hours before landfall. Prior to that, and after that, nothing! It is their job to protect their citizenry and they had the power. Instead they sat on their hands!

I think if Bush stood on a corner outside the Superdome and passed out $100 bills to everyone who asked, the left would still claim he was "stingy" and "didn't care" and was to blame for every whim the left wants given to them.

They're going to blame Bush for everything, including where hurricanes land. It is as predictable as the sun rising.

There was a caller on one show that started blaming Bush for "not leading" and "not doing enough" but couldn't stick to the script long enough before he was claiming Bush stole elections and melted the ice caps, etc. etc. and said the whole thing was the fault of greedy Republicans. The hosts just laughed him off the show.

[Ann Archy]

Democrats "project" onto Republicans that which they themselves are GUILTY of! They make me sick! Where is the GOVERNOR of Louisiana? This is what she was elected to do! Where is the Mayor?? Oh right, he went to Baton ROuge.

[WideGlide]

The lack of basic personal survival skills is a sorry state of affairs in this country and a shameful indicator of the results of 40 plus years of Nanny statism and the quiet racism of condescending liberals. For 3 days everyone was told to get of New Orleans. Those that ignored the advise to leave are now screaming to be told what to do. And there are those "refugees" claiming lack of transportation ("I couldn't afford to fix the car") or resources ("Can't afford no tank of gas") while standing on rooftops and balconies waving at rescue copters, smoking $5/pk cigarettes and leaning on TV satellite dishes. Many if not most of the vigorous flag waving seems to be coming from very able-bodied and fit "victims". Laughable if not so tragic.
