So that's why she kept waving her hands...

It’s a fact that poverty, ignorance and crime were rampant in New Orleans long before Katrina. The city has a 40% illiteracy rate. Louisiana spends less than $5,000 per year per child on education. Teacher’s salaries rank 48th in the United States. It is estimated that 30% of the New Orleans population is on welfare at any given time.

But that's simply not possible. The Democrats run the city. The Democrats run the state; the governor's office and both houses of Congress.

New Orleans is a Democrat, socialist utopia.

No way on the world did little george stup write this. this may have been written by a guy with the same name, but it cannot be Stup.

Teddy Kennedy a lush. No F-ing way would he call him that.

Im shocked more now, than I was when the levee's broke.

WHOA!! I love it. There's nothing like a swift kick in the rear to wake us up.

When bureaucrats were forced to think on their feet, they proved woefully inadequate. Dependent in their daily lives upon cell phones, telephones, e-mail and the like, they were as effective as headless chickens when the time arrived to be creative. They can’t do it. They are used to process, red tape and confused directives.

About 2 weeks ago I saw Nagin in an interview on (I believe it was) NBC. When asked the question, "what would you have done differently?" his reply was "Screamed louder."

[workerbee]

It was written by Ron Marr.

[rineaux]

Sorry George,

I see that it was Ron Marr and not the little stup that wrote it.

But you are the george but not the real george.

[rineaux]

Yes, I saw that after I read it but not prior to me sending it. I have since made my apology to george stup, but not the real little george stup.

[workerbee]

Yes, and they've run it for decades. But of course that's never mentioned, never referenced, and even if it were, it would be deemed irrelevant and one would be accused of "insensitivity" and "racism" for daring to bring it up. No, the Dems are pure good-hearted all-loving benefactors. Any problems that occured in NOLA are the result of Republicans in general and George Bush in particular.

Great screen name.
I would fix the final sentence:
Actually, they ARE the entire problem.

They might even threaten to punch us. ;)

The media saw an opportunity to distort an image, to further foster the left’s desire to portray their political opponents as heartless bigots. It’s not that the media engage in wholesale lies, they simple refused to tell the entire story (or even most of it).

Exactly what I've been thinking all along. I don't care what color people are. They are people. Period. It's the media who has chosen to exploit it, not necessarily the people who are IN NO. I'd be willing to bet that 90% of those who didn't evacuate were upstanding citizens of every color, size and shape. And the 10% who weren't got all the press.
