The truth of the matter is that all those billions spent on the war in Iraq could have been spent re-building New Orleans.
Great ... New Orleans was built on below sea level wetlands ... and there are so-called pro-enviroment Democrats that want to rebuild on these wetlands. Hello?

The Bush administration has made mistakes but what has happened in New Orleans has many contributing factors. I do think Bush should have been quicker off the mark on this but it is a complex situation.
What is with people shooting at rescue helicopters? I just don't get the violence that has occurred.
I hope things don't further deteriorate

|| News || September 01, 2005 Religious leader blames hurricane on gays An antigay activist group based in Philadelphia says that the disaster wrought by Hurricane Katrina reflects God's judgment on New Orleans for hosting the gay Southern Decadence party. In a statement issued Wednesday, Repent America described "homosexuals engaging in sex acts in the public streets" at the annual event, which draws some 125,000 revelers to the Big Easy each Labor Day weekend. "Although the loss of lives is deeply saddening, this act of God destroyed a wicked city," said Repent America director Michael Marcavage. "May it never be the same." Marcavage is a notorious foe of gays. He and three other Repent America members were charged with felonies last year connected with a demonstration they staged at Philadelphia's gay pride observance. A judge dismissed all charges in February. The head of the predominantly gay Metropolitan Community Church responded to Marcavage's assessment of the tragedy. The Reverend Doctor Cindy Love said she doesn't believe God punishes anyone with natural disasters. "I really believe that the use of scripture in this way is an affront to the life and love of Jesus Christ," she said. (Sirius/OutQ)
I hope that Bush-loving brainwashed teenager that supports that idiot of a president reads this too!
Kriz >:o(
Yep, I suppose you win. It's all Bush's fault.
I have a runny nose. That's Bush's fault! He didn't approve enough money for better sneeze pills!
Yesterday our school tennis team lost a match... It's Bush! It's because he's FAILING our public schools!
And it's Bush's fault I had to travel an hour to get into the Aristocrats! Damn him!
Let's see how many other things we can blame on him, if he controls the weather he must control EVERYTHING! Hey, Mr. President, how come The Law Firm got cancelled? No fair!

I'd have thought that the wealthiest superpower in the world would have had the resources to pay to evacuate everyone. But it certainly seems that, if the news reports are to be believed, that the people who stayed are the ones who couldn't afford to get out. Is it a coincidence that almost all of the people I've seen in TV news reports who were stuck there have been black?
I'm stounded at the amount of money that is being directed to fighting a war that nobody can possibly win yet little seems to be being done about some of the most needy Americans.
It's so true that disasters like that bring out either the best or the worst in people. I can't believe that the situation was allowed to deteriorate so far that people are actually shooting at emergency helicopters.
This is quite the fucker of a world we live in.

Back when Hussein was in power, Iraq was like the anarchy occurring in the aftermath of Katrina EVER SINGLE DAY FOR 25 YEARS. Except it was Saddam-run and therefore not anarchy but a disturbingly well-run rape-and-torture machine. But of course, we shouldn't care about them because they're not Americans.

Has Donald Trump ever given a flying shit about anyone other than himself? No wonder why the guy names every single building he owns after himself.

It's gonna take a month or so (24 hours a day), of pumping water out of New Orleans back into the ocean. The water came in, over land, and since the land is below sea level and there is a barrier, they've got to pump it out. It's probably like a giant swamp down there at the moment!
