[Ghost of Philip Marlowe]

The problem is not "too many" in Iraq.

The problem is the governor NOT declaring martial law and allowing LE and military (NG) to use military tactics for riot control. They are trained in this and could have effectively nipped this situation in the bud had their hands NOT been tied by the PC police.

Once again, the Left denies the lessons of Chamberlain.

[Captain Kirk]

Bush could have been sending in helicopters from a very early stage repairing the levees. The is a bi-partisan screw-up of the first order. No politician can be left off the hook, nobody.
