I hear on the news about people viciously cursing the government for not immediately granting their wishes; fucking parasites have to support themselves for the first time in their lives and all they can do is steal from others and of course it's the government's fault. But they're no different from the city politicians who also blame the federal government for not being ready to care for them when they get into trouble. Does anyone actually take responsibility for their own lives in this country any more? Let the worthless, stupid fucks die off and the country will be better for it. And ffs make it clear to the morons that if they rebuild and continue to live in that ridiculously unsuitable area they'll be left to die when the next disaster occurs. |

I DID NOT say "things are well in hand". Of course they are not - this is only the third day following hurricane Katrina making landfall in Louisiana. Recovery from a natural disaster of this magnitude is not going to happen in a few days, or even a few weeks. I DID say you can't expect "overnight miracles" which means there is no expedient solution. The solution takes efforts that can not be accomplished in a short period of time. The "open mind" issue I mentioned is not aimed toward emergency services, and is clearly delineated. It is a certainty that the efforts of the emergency services personnel (including the President and Federal Government) are more likely to result in actual disaster relief than political innuendo and bitching.

Sorry Albed but I like to think of something intelligent to say rather than spew anal sewage out of my mouth like you do.
I reiterate what I posted earilier in that i am not a political debater in the least. Right and wrong decisions have nothing to do with a particular political party and as one hurricane survivor said to press - it's not black thing or a white thing - it's a people thing. I'm a humanitarian and would probably be called a liberal because of it, so be it. Louisiana, Mississippi and parts of Alabama don't care about political parties or political agendas they simply want help now. Louisiana tried to get help in the past through the levee projects and the Corp of Engineers but the decision was made to cut the budget despite the Corps own protests (and proof of the dangers a major hurricanes effects) and that of its' citizens - that's the bottom line. I guess it's easier to blame the drug addicted, poor, welfare poor, mentally ill or whatever "have-nots" you can throw in there for being in Louisiana, Miss., or Alabama. As for Bush-blaming (for those who would call it such), I don't see one single person blaming a natural disaster on poor Mr. Bush. What I do see and hear (and it's there for all to see in the media) is blaming Mr. Bush and his administration for the not-so-wise decisions that they make and continue to make. For ANY part of the U.S. to be compared to a 3rd world country by foreign countries is a disgrace and abomination. For anyone to still blame these people for not getting out when they had a chance is cruel and thoughtless. It amazes me that the pro-Bush folks are in denial about this administration and no matter how many poor decisions that Mr. Bush and his cronies make. it will forever be lost on those that fail to see. The bottom line is this administration didn't (and still doesn't) care what humanitarian services it cuts in order to fund the money trap so commonly called The War On Terror or for the support of big business. Boston Globe (need subscription i think) - National Guard By Bryan Bender Quote:
As some of the worlds press sees it - some of which touches on U.S.'s part in the global warming problem: BBC I guess it's far too much to ask for if this president were to admit perhaps he made an error by cutting hurricane preparedness for the Gulf Coast. Probably an even farther stretch for him and his adminstration to offer an apology. but i'll apologize for not being a real debater. Last edited by goldie : 02-09-05 at 10:24 AM. |

Nice try knife, you should work for the NYT, they like to tell half-truths and tell half the story too. Good video though, shows how President Bush is emotionally involved and helping out in any way he can.
and goldie, The budget cuts have nothing to do with what is happened or happening in New Orleans - that is the bottom line....but... “What a man believes upon grossly insufficient evidence is an index into his desires — desires of which he himself is often unconscious. If a man is offered a fact which goes against his instincts, he will scrutinize it closely, and unless the evidence is overwhelming, he will refuse to believe it. If, on the other hand, he is offered something which affords a reason for acting in accordance to his instincts, he will accept it even on the slightest evidence. The origin of myths is explained in this way.” — Bertrand Russell, “Roads to Freedom” In the rational world you do not shift funds going toward defense and war related activities esp. in the aftermath of 9/11. The levees were designed for a catagory 3 storm, not a 4 or a 5. In 2004 there were propals to upgrade the levees to be capable for a level 4/5 storm. Even if construction started, after the studies of course, it would have not been completed until 2008. Do you really believe the Bush Administration does not care about the people in New Orleans? Do you really truely believe that? Things take time, help is coming in a huge way, everyone is doing the best they can right now, millions of people right across America want to help.

Are you trying to make people think your smarter than you are by doing it that way? There's a lot of other clues you'll have to hide as well. |

You can follow the protocol the rest of us use or have attention drawn to your pathetic schemes.
If it takes you a day to compose a post, don't be ashamed, just post it when you're ready and people will treat it like every other post. Quote:
