Hey theknife,
That was pre-Homeland Security when they cleaned up after Hugo. There are still ongoing programs that are building up the homes in the affected area of North Carolina. The Mayor had the resposibility PRE disaster to remove the citizens, FEMA has POST disaster resposibilty. And considering what the Governor and the Mayor did NOT do, I thnk FEMA is doing an outstanding job. The job should have been much smaller in scale. pz

All I've heard over the last week are people who already disliked or hated the president using this event as an excuse to dislike or hate him more. People are using this opportunity to bash Bush the way some people have used this opportunity to break into jewelery stores. Just a quick qestion for anybody who cares to answer: when you hear the term 'first responder' who comes to mind? |

He will single handedly foul most of the recovery and remaining evacuations by allowing the residents back in for a "peek" of there property. Guess what? They ain't going to leave, not for a minute. The influx of the Jeff Parish residents will have Orleans Parish residents hell bent on staying. It will be anarchy. Real soon, the US Marines will be deployed to forcefully evacuate the Orleans Parish residents. Just imagine the bedlam this will cause. Aaron Broussard is the idiot. Trust me, he has lost it, and will lose all because of it.

The Police/Army/National Guard will force people to evacuate when it is clearly dangerous for people to remain in a disaster area - and such a danger exists in New Orleans due to water borne pathogens.
Tests show that sewage and dangerous levels of harmful bacteria are present in the flood waters. The flood water is sufficiently polluted to be a skin contact hazard. Disinfecting the water before pumping it into the lake or river will not be reasonably possible. They are trying to convince everyone to leave. Those who will go willingly will be assisted out first. Eventually, they will have to evacuate the unwilling forcefully. This is very unfortunate, but clearly a necessity. Bacterial infection from storm surge driven by the hurricane is already blamed for 5 deaths. Add to that coliform bacteria from sewage, bacteria from decomposing bodies, and hazardous chemicals and you have a serious health hazard. Yes, it will work out in due time. http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/9156612/ http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/9242497/ http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/9241863/

No doubt the name "New Orleans" will live on but the old city bearing it now may essentially end. |

Mayor Ray Nagin today issued an emergency proclamation calling on all law officers and military members to begin using force, if necessary to compel all civilians to leave New Orleans. http://www.nola.com/newslogs/breakin...005_09_06.html Published yesterday morning, but the Governor says he doesn't have the authority, only she does. More Louisiana political bullshit that will eventually cost more lives. The remaining people need to be forced out. Period. They do not understand that their lives are worth more than their home, not their land, but the stick and stones. They fear that if the leave, they will never return. It is that fear that makes them stay. THIS IS THE PROBLEM!!!! They don't understand that they are WORTH SOMETHING!!!!! They have been told all their lives that they are worthless, make them leave and let them realize that they ARE worth the world.

btw, Broussard is the Parish President of Jefferson Parish, which is a self-sufficient suburb of the city. It is not relavent to the forced evacuations, except for the fact that he let the citizens return to their homes prematurely, which will cause problems when the citizens of New Orleans are forcefully evacuated.
Jefferson Parish is as different to New Orleans as is Dallas to San Fransico, in many ways.

Fuk wasting time, energy, resources and the inevitable violence forcing those that refuse to leave to get out.
If they haven't left and CHOOSE to stay and live without electricity, under martial law where they know and are fully aware they could be shot for "finding/looting/borrowing" even necessities, or hindering rescue/rebuilding efforts then fuk them and concentrate on pumping the city out and restoring power. Kill anybody not helping the situation. The rest who refuse to leave will surely start lending a helping hand given the only other option is death for hindering progress. If these hard heads survive then more power to them and if they don't then their shit gets bull dozed or looted anyway and they died for NOTHING. |

Your reply are getting age old here, everybody is a god damned drunk beside you eh? Or a monkey bong sucker, that is also an age old reply coming from your narrow side of the world.
Take a chill pill and if you get bored out of your mind again, go trash my name at the tehru again, they didn't pay any notice to your little anal-ology rant, not even squishy. IMO, you are a little pathetic man with nothing else to do but bitch and troll Keep going, this way you are digging you grave much sooner than expected. to my great pleasure that is Keep spinning troll boy |

Howard Dean tries playing the race card with Katrina victims.
http://www.miami.com/mld/miamiherald/12586210.htm Democratic National Committee Chairman Howard Dean on Wednesday sought to turn the chaos of Hurricane Katrina into a benefit for Democrats, decrying Republican priorities and telling black pastors in Miami that race played a ''significant role'' in the storm's death toll. Who didn't see that coming? Maybe he'll try for a photo op with some rotting corpses. Go for it Howard.
