Wow, sounds familiar. Terri Schiavo, anyone?
DU is so over the top that sometimes I think it is a giant spoof site put on by some ingenius conservative with a devilish sense of humor. It is almost beyond words.
moonbat bump!
This is how the far left is responding to Katrina.
Too late, moonbats!
ON KATRINA |
Just a matter of time!!!
Bush and his cronies aren't going to do it. They think this is a chance to "let" black people die and blame it on "Katrina"."
It IS hard to believe people seriously believe this stuff. They couldn't be more wrong.
Here's another post from DU where one of their long time posters suggests that they try to gather the evidence they need to prove that Bush/Cheney/Halliburton created and steered Katrina towards New Orleans to get bad news off the front page. In other words, they have commandeered control of the entire planet's weather mechanism, and the only thing they can think to do with this awesome power is to try to influence our nation's news cycle. It is not parody:

Don't respond w/o your TINFOIL on - "Katrina" = "another 911 for bush" ?
I think this disaster is tooo coincidental.
Everything going on was "negative for bush and for POWER" :
* Iraq is a nightmare -- the draft constitution rejected by Sunni's with potential "civil war" as a result.
* The US economy in the shitter (BS job numbers and inflation rising)
* The Housing bubble aboutr to burst with consumers extended on home equity loans -- last few months retail shopping slowing
* Oil continued to increase and people having to spend less on consumables.
* The US "economic - housing - oil induced - poor planning by govt BUBBLE" was coming home to roost.
* NOT to mention the Plame investigation and Rove "fingerprints"
What do we get :
-------------------
A "perfectly targeted devistating hurricane" at a city "below sea level which controls 25% of US energy production"
For those of you that don't know -- our Military has been working with "controlling the weather" for sometime. How HAARP works and it creates "depression's and steering" don't ask me. I know hurricanes require warm Gulf waters (August/Sept you have that).
And now:
---------
7x24 news on the hurricane -- forgetting all of the above.
I don't trust TPTB and I think more is coming that all "our woes" will now be blamed on Katrina"
IF there were anyway to find out increased "weather making activity" that steered this towards New Orleans and others I would love to know.
TPTB would do "anything" do advance thier agenda -- and the CNN "situation room" was created "just in time" -- what a "co-inkydink"
Did I say wow?
Assuming they didn't abort them to begin with...

Do you think the black people in New Orleans are being punished?
by that spiteful little dick-tater for the actions of the Congressional Black caucus in Washington who have made his life uncomfortable in recent months?
Is this payback?

3. The reality
This government, doesn't give a **** about the people, least of all Black people. Moreover it's not like the Dems were pushing for anything good before this thing happened. If they cared they would have made sure things were prepared too, or at least put pressure on to make it happen. Instead they're opportunistically tagging it to Bush when they're all responsible for this horror, even if Bush is primarily responsible.

2. They are being punished for being poor and black I believe. We dropped soldiers into Afghanistan where they conducted searches in some of the roughest terrain in the world. But we can't get food to people in NO after a hurricane? So how hard are they really trying?

6. bush, inc doesn't believe the inaction will have political fallout so assured are they by the racism of white americans. however, this is really backfiring on the bastards. i just heard a guy on the radio...a two-time bush voter...who is livid about the lack of concern and action.

7. I think voting 77% Kerry could lessen the sense of urgency..

12. They were abandoned because,...their lives were not profitable.
It's just that simple.

14. No, they are being punished for not voting for Bush. That's how he and Rove think.
"They didn't vote for me. **** 'em."

18. I believe Bush is intentionally dragging his feet on NO.
There's no money in helping poor people. Plus Cheney is probably trying to angle in Halliburton for rebuilding...! Why else would it take Bush this long, I'm in Fla. Jeb was here the second day, George and Jeb together the third!
Saddam may have gassed his own people, but Bush**...
...left his own people to die in NO.
We can predict with accuracy what ridiculous things they are going to say and they NEVER let us down.
Yes! It's DU- the gift that keeps on giving!
So essentially, Bush and Rove caused a Category 5 hurricane to come and wipe out New Orleans because the area didn't vote for Bush?
Wow. I never knew they were so powerful. :eyeroll:
First he had LIHOP, MIHOP, BFEE, etc. Now we have a new one:
LPDOP
It's even worse than that! Some of them, as dead showed above, suspect Bush & Rove used advanced technology to create and steer storms to desired targets. Hmmmmm? Makes you wonder why Massachusetts is still on the map.....
