It was brought up last night on clear channel radio from Nashville, that is, the hundreds of school buses that were submerged in water, along with hundreds of other government pooled vehicles under water. And where were the city's transit buses? This was with a category 5 hurricane barreling down on the coast. We are wondering why the mayor didn't have these buses removed to a location well northwest of the projected storm path. It seems he had plenty of time to do AT LEAST that, and nobody would have argued with it. These vehicles would then have been available for evacuation purposes.

In fact, many of those buses could have been carrying elderly, invalid and crippled, and many of the hospitalized people out of the storm's path long before landfall. The predictions were in.

We ALL must return to a biblical faith in God, and reject the ideas even of the Freepers who want to establish Darwinian evolution as the new established religion of the government school systems. By the way, if there is no God (and He must be a God of creation and superintendence of that creation), then we have NO rights. The INALIENABLE rights we claim to enjoy are granted by God, and our founding fathers never objected to this being documented from our very founding. If there is no such Creator, as mentioned in our Declaration of Independence, then what we do have are only privileges that are granted by human civil government; privileges that can be altered, infringed, denied and removed.

A biblical faith (not a civil rights movement-style faith) must be followed by a rebuilding of our trust in the God of the Bible (in Jesus Christ) through a return to knowledge and love of His words, repentance from selfish and licentious life styles, and seasons of humble prayer...actually talking to God.

A biblical faith will most certainly lead believers back to the development of strong family units, which is the divine order of things. New Orleans is a city openly tolerant of those that would destroy the divine order for the family...the sodomites (that means, homosexuals). Quit asking us (whoever it is that might be asking us) to be tolerant of deviant sexual life-styles and of those who flaunt and parade them in our streets.

The entire needs to stop its reliance on the federal government, and it is time to keep all resources at state and local levels from the very start. No funds should go through Washington, and then have to be requested to be returned to the states in times of disaster. The funds necessary to take care of New Orleans should never have been in Washington to begin with; they should have been immediately available in Louisiana, Alabama and Mississippi.

True. The city was proud of the "party town" (selfish and licentious life styles)image. Mix that with the "the world owes me a living" mentality and it is no suprise so many people preyed on others after the disaster. The only hurricane survivors they've interviewed on tv who seem calm and civilized are the ones who say "thank GOD we're alive" or "I trust in GOD to take care of us". It would have been unthinkable in these politically correct times for that mayor to ask everyone to PRAY together before the storm but how much more effective that would have been than waiting for government help!
