I thought I'd seen/heard everything, but good grief, this whining rant has to take the cake.

Jackson also criticized the role given to former presidents George Bush senior and Bill Clinton as coordinators for a fund raising effort following the Katrina tragedy. “Why wasn’t I asked to lead this relief effort?” Jackson demanded to know. “As a Black man, I can feel their pain just as well, if not better than Bill Clinton. And my fees are quite reasonable.”

Perhaps because you would actually CHARGE A FEE to go out and request aid, assistance for hurricane victims??

'Cuse me! A black man was leading the city! It's not about black or white...... it's about not being able to reach a city that is impassable!!

City transit, school system buses, public service transportation could have removed the citizens of NO. Where would they go???.,... sitting beside the road SAFE is better than being left in a cesspool!
