Good question. Why isn’t Obama being pilloried, the way Bush was lambasted by liberals and the media over Hurricane Katrina????

Posted this earlier in a mostly dead thread. Anyone have any news on this?

"Just checked the LSU fall schedule and orientation for various categories of students has been going on last week and this week. A 31,000 student campus and classes start Monday the 22nd.

Most students would normally be on campus at this point. Anyone heard any news about how the flood might have affected the LSU campus?"

John Bel signed over authority to the Feds right away. During Katrina Kathleen let the people die in order to make a political statement

[HangUpNow]

But...but...According to the Media and Democrats, homeless/drowned white lives DON'T matter!

The demonic regime and it's propaganda ministry are absolute disgraces.

I believe this is true, even if the Red Cross is the source.

Remind me about the media and how it got down of G W Bush after Katrina........Oh, that was deserved because Bush was a Republican President and the Democrats in the state wanted to make this a political issue. This is a Democratic President involved with the same state's natural disaster and a Democratic Governor not wanting to make it a political issue.

Obama playing golf at least keeps him from signing bad laws or bad executive orders.

Obama's response?

In truth it may the worst since the 1927 Flood.

The White House released this statement by the President regarding the devastating destruction in Louisiana:

Fore!

[eyeamok]

I read the article, but it doesn’t say exactly why President Obama used Bush’s weather machine to try and KILL ALL THOSE BLACKS in Louisiana!!!!

Neither snow nor rain nor heat nor gloom of night shall stay Our Glorious Leader from the swift completion of his appointed rounds of golf.

Local liberal TV station is actually posting an article with the headline:

http://www.wral.com/the-latest-conway-says-trump-apology-was-all-donald-trump-/15942598/#K31U6bW55Fzos1oh.99

The Latest: Trump arrives in Louisiana to tour flood areas.

The Manafort resignation is just a one sentence jab near the end of the article. I am surprised but pleased. However, if it were Hillary, the article would not be “down the page” but would a blaring top headline.

It appears that the Global Warming alarmists are sitting this one out, as not to shed bad light on Obama’s inaction.

Perhaps folks should not live in a city below sea level, which holds back the gulf waters by constructing series of earthen dikes?

If you live in the desert, you don’t get to bitch about lack of water.

The FEDS (FEMA) and local Emergency Preparedness still haven't learned since ‘Katrina’ , use the DUKWs!

Don't worry Sean Penn will save the day....

Though hardly sleek or stylish, the hull of this truck was designed by famed yacht designer and 1937 America’s Cup winner Roderick Stephens. The automotive components were developed by GMC, based on its 2 1/2-ton, 6×6 model CCKW cargo truck. Though ungainly looking, the DUKW was outstandingly seaworthy. Though envisioned as a means to transport equipment and men from ship onto the shore, and some distance beyond, they were also used inland, notably during the crossing of the Rhine.

The DUKW was standardized in October 1942, and production began immediately at the Yellow Coach plant in Pontiac, Mich., which was also home to CCKW production.

Despite its successful demonstrations and tests, the DUKW was not fully appreciated by many in the military until after its successful use during the invasion of Sicily. After that, the DUKW’s place in history was sealed.

Demand for the DUKW became so great that a second production facility had to be added, this one at the Chevrolet plant in St. Louis, Mo. Production totaled 21,147 vehicles by the time production ceased at war’s end.

The name DUKW is an acronym resulting from GMC model code: D indicates 1942 model year design, U is utility truck, amphibious, K for all-wheel drive, W for tandem rear axles.

Because of its unique abilities, the U.S. military did not phase the DUKW out of service until the 1960s.
