Quote: thedoctor said: He should have been pissed at Nagin and Blanco since it turned out that they weren't smart enough to have New Orleans and the surrounding area declared a Disaster Area. As soon as Bush told them that, they did and the National Guard rode in to take over.
I get pissed all over again when I hear people bitchin' about New Orleans and trying to blame the federal government. Their local government failed them because they kept electing (and have done so again) crooked and incompetent politicians to spend their money and control their governments. Nagin ordered people to leave, and they didn't (ask anyone who works insurance about how many lost/stolen/damaged auto claims have come out of the 9th Ward). He then refused to evacuate them with the shitload of buses he had parked. Fuck it! Learn from Mississippi and rebuild your shit without complaining.
Stop trying to divert attention away from Bush's idiocy you right-wing lunatic!
