To Those Who Voted for Bush: Do You Get It Now?

The Crisis Paper ^ | September 6, 2005 | Bernard Weiner ==> PhD <== Co-Editor, Crisis Paper

[Fawn]

LOL.

and when I got into my car accident last year? It was BUSH'S FAULT!!!

[dfwgator]

And the winner of this year's Academy Award for Best performance by a Leading Actor goes to...Aaron Broussard!"

"You like me....you really like me."

[Reaganghost]

"Mr. "Ph.D" probably hasn't been taking his prescription laxatives lately."

He did. You just read the result.

[MA~Bear]

Should't this have a Puke Alert on it?

[hflynn]

The fact that the great majority of those seeking refuge and rescue were African-American, and that no help came in the first five or six days,

Gee Weiner, maybe Governor Blanco, whose name means WHITE in Spanish, had something to do with no help for blacks for 5 or 6 days.

[HungarianGypsy]

For a second I thought you were posting the blog of a guy I know. Same exact nonsense. He spends more time writing about blaming Bush for everything than almost anything else.

[jos65]

This fellow's name should be Whiner, but then Wiener does make sense

Congratulations!!!!

You beat me to it.

I was trying to come up with an appropriate response to his drival( drivel or drivle).

I don't know about you, but I tire of all the unsubstantiated finger pointing.

These folks do not posess an ounce of class.

Thanks for your post.

"..the left will insist on more bureaucracy rather than less to fix the problem."

Government is the problem.

"Bureaucracy has committed murder here in the greater New Orleans area.."

And the socialists are the murdering bureaucrats, as should have been evident to anyone with at least a room temperature IQ.

[lugsoul]

Sure. Like Rudy...

[Peach]

Oh. My. Goodness. This guy needs medical help. Immediately.

[TheDon]

Isn't it considered bad form to mix Rat propaganda memes?

[lugsoul]

Nope. I am saying that those who say it is all Nagin's fault have obviously never lived in a city and have a completely unrealistic view of municipal government.

I'm impressed when they get the garbage collection right. And it ain't that often.

Wait. Many of those saying it is all Nagin's fault do live in cities. Some of them in DC. And I'd bet every penny I have in the bank that they wouldn't want their mayor to be the person responsibile for managing the disaster of the century.

[Conspiracy Guy]

Tens of thousands of New Orleans residents -- those mostly too poor to have been able to evacuate the city -- were herded into mass structures like the Superdome and Convention Center, locked inside, and then no government agency provided food, water, medicine, sanitation care, removal of the dead, etc. This wasn't local government's role.

[Yankereb]

You're right. This is exactly the kind of guy who inspires confidence in you when you are faced with a crisis of Biblical proportions. He sits there and cries because the Federal Government didn't help rescue his friend's Mother even though his friend talked to her every day by phone and assured her that help from the Feds was coming. My question to this guy is what the heck did your friend do to save his mother. Why didn't he save his mother. I would have found a way to get her out, not sit around waiting for somebody else to do it. This guy Broussard is indicative of the type of leadership they have in Louisiana. There are thousands of people depending on you for leadership, and you're too busy being an emotional basket case. They want to blame the Feds and Bush. If it weren't for the Military, Feds, and Bush, they'd still be treading water.
They did an interview with one of the evacuees here in Houston who was being flown with his family to Virginia to be reunited with family. He said he was so impressed with the kindness and love shown to him and his family in Texas. He said it wasn't like that in New Orleans. In New Orleans, it was every man for himself.
You want to know where the compassionate conservativism is?
It's right here in Texas, where we're taking care of 250,000 of Broussard's fellow citizens. It's the home of President George W. Bush, and his family. It's the home of compassionate conservativism, not Liberal emotionalism , helplessness, and hyperbole.

The left is more interested in rebuilding the Democrat Party than they are in rebuilding NOLA and they will stoop to any level. It's beginning to feel like a game of limbo, "How low can you go?" Very good response. I just hope that we all remember this in November '06 & '08

[daler]

Well, the only thing I can conclude is that the Mayor of N O and the Governor of Louisiana are completely unnecessary political commodities.

Perhaps, if you buy into the libs arguments, that applies to all other states and municipalities as well.

If GWB is responsible and accountable for everything that happens in every city and podunk hamlet between NY and LA, let's get rid of the state and local governments and save ourselves a whole bunch of taxpayer $$.

[Reaganghost]

It matters because people will begin to believe even the most brazen lie if lies like this are repeated often enough and not countered with the facts.

Democrats are living proof that you can fool some of the people all of the time.

[dfwgator]

NYC had no warnings of the attacks, yet it was the NYPD and NYFD that were saving people in Manhattan, not the Feds.

New Orleans had at least three days warning and a PLAN in place that the Mayor could have consulted.

Are you implying that just because the Mayor was Black, he shouldn't have been held up to the same standards as Rudy Giuliani?

[RightWhale]

You and I, no matter for whom we voted in 2004

Any guesses?

The polemic is not complete. A complete polemic needn't be any longer than this declamation nor more logical, just more focused. There have been some very creative conspiracies proposed in the past week.

[HungarianGypsy]

But... if Kerry had been in office he would have had a "plan". You would know it by going to his website.
