This guy? BAH!
Wasn't this guy just indicted on bribery charges?
That guy is the poster child of what went wrong in NO.
Broussard doing his best George Voinivitch impression....
My wife thought I was being far too mean when I stood and applauded Aaron Broussard's performance and declared, "And the winner of this year's Academy Award for Best performance by a Leading Actor goes to...Aaron Broussard!"
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.
Perfect example of the kind of leadership we have come to expect from the Democratic Party.
Men who Cry.
