Landrieu: President Bush Is Number One Obstacle To Louisiana Rebuilding

[Battle Hymn of the Republic]

Bush's fault!

[facedown]

Landrieu is heading over the cliff.

[lnbchip]

Well I guess it's time for all us Louisiana voters to go get the paper bags for our heads. Can it get any more embarrassing and shameful politically for us?

[Fenris6]

No. State Corruption is the #1 obstacle to Louisiana rebuilding, Mary...

[popdonnelly]

Can't stop the Dems from lying.

[Coldwater Creek]

Bring on the barf bags!!!!!!!

[Darkwolf377]

Here is also the statement by President Bush at his Thursday press conference: Q I´m not trying -- I have a question about New Orleans, sir. THE PRESIDENT: This is -- I agree with you. I can see the expressions on your colleagues´ faces that it´s -- Q Well, I hope it will be worth your time. (Laughter.) THE PRESIDENT: They don´t think so. (Laughter.)

I love the inclusion of these extraneous moments just so Landreu can include the (Laughter) quotes, like Bush is laughing at them.

That baby-faced btich Landreu is the perfect democrat--politics before country at every turn.

Mary, Mary, Mary.

Whining is SO unattractive.

Shame on you. If President Bush was the "number one obstacle" to the rebuilding of Louisiana, would he not also be equally an obstacle to rebuilding in Mississippi, Alabama and Florida? Yet the cleanup and restoration of lives in those places goes on, and nobody (or almost nobody, malcontents are EVERYWHERE) is kvetching about the lack of support they are getting in Federal assistance. Louisiana can and should do a great deal of the "self-help" in putting their own house in order.

OMG. This woman is delusional. Absolutely 100% certifiable.

[Eric in the Ozarks]

Poor, confused woman. Get up in the seat and drive the frickin' bus, Mary.

Louisiana proposed full funding for the hurricane protection and flood control

Louisiana wants the FedGov to fund even more $ billions, even though they have got their share and then some.

[okie01]

Landrieu: Louisiana proposed full funding for the hurricane protection and flood control that could help prevent such tragedies. But the administration opposed our plan...

Bush: A lot of the money we´re spending is prescribed by law, but we also went a step further and proposed to Congress, and they accepted, the CDGB money so that monies can actually go directly to individual families that need help.

I think we have discovered the underlying reason for the problem.

Landrieu and her cronies have "a plan" that funnels federal money through their hands.

The President has "a plan" that puts the money directly in the hands of the affected individuals.

The kleptocracy is at risk of being cut off...

[Radix]

She weasled her way back into the Senate in 2000, but I don't believe that she can pull it off again.

Will she?

[mcshot]

I suspect she and others are more concerned about getting a good cash flow to maintain the level of corruption to which they are accustomed. I remain totally stuned by the outright boldness of NOLA and La politics.

"That baby-faced btich Landreu..."

Hubby & I call her Baby Moon.

[alloysteel]

Some 80% of the black folk who fled Narlins will never return.

This diaspora sent large numbers to other states, and this may just be the margin of votes that any statewide Dem'crat needs to ever get elected.

Look for an almost fair tally of votes in fall 2006 in Louisiana.

[bayouranger]

Will she?

Well, she did manage to beat Woody Jenkins by busing her voters to the polls w/in two hours of the election ending to give her the last second win. OTOH, she did allow those same buses to succumb to the rising water instead of using them to ferry out the stranded citizens of NOLA. Damn shame. Her largest voting block died waiting for her to help using the same resources as done once before.

She's beyond a lame duck now.

Filthy Lying LIbs and the LIes they tell.

[upchuck]

Maybe they can stick Mary into the Louisiana Political hall of FShame along with Blank-O and then lock the doors and throw away the key.
