Amazing isn't it? The truth you will never hear from the MSM, and the polls that will never be done or heard.
Watch for the names Terry Ebbert and Jay Mayeaux also begin to come to light as this investigation proceeds. Ebbert was the City's Homeland Security Chief and Mayeaux was his director of operations. When the heat begins to shine on those "elected" politicians in Louisiana, these two appointments will be right in the middle of it (IMHO).
You're right to do so. In any case, most of the important questions haven't been answered.
That's funny! 8) Yeah I think there was a lot of pride at play. That, and I think no democrat in LA wanted to be told what to do by some Republican. Now we see how well a 60 year corrupt democrat dominated state governement handles a disaster.
I think as the weeks go by, there will be an ever increasing shift against blanco and nagin, and all those under them as the people who really made the mistakes that cost lives. I look for both of them, including landrieu, BOTH of them, to be voted out of office. This has the potential to really turn Louisiana into a solid red State. Not just a state that votes for Republicans for President. This looks to have the potential to end the emmense democrat corruption that has controled Louisiana for so many decades.
Great thread with LOTS of info in that pic link. Thansk.
Thanks for looking.
I'll keep those names in mind. All the libs talking about Bush being on vacation making it worse, by all appearances, those two guys were in comas somewhere.
What they really meant was that it would give Bush a chance to be the white knight who saved them, and that would not be good for Hillary.
Well, I figured that surely that email had made its way here, but the more people that see info about this, the more people in the country get it eventually, thanks to email. I LOVE the fact that with FOX News, Talk Radio, and the blogs like this one, there is NO WAY the liberal media can control what gets out to most Americans. I LOVE that. The overwhelming majority of conservatives and rational moderates that actually vote are tied in to at least one of the three (FOX, Talk Radio, blogs), if not two of them or all three. And the power of email makes those three even more potent, since by the time something has been emailed for a day or two, it's reached millions of people who didn't see it on FOX, hear it on talk radio, or see any blogs. E-mail is such a powerful amplifier for the three legs of Conservative news distribution. It makes it amazing Reagan was able to get ANYTHING done in the 80s without any of them.
the organizations identified in the plan were never contacted or coordinating into any planning - though the document implies that they were.
Sick (in the bad sense of the word)
Hey I was glad to go look. I bookmarked it. 8)
Yeah, Heaven forbid Bush come in to a democrat controlled zombie zone and do what has to be done to save people, taking authority out of the hands of the local corrupt democrat hustlers. I just can't wait to see the ad against hillary whenever her next campaign is, showing how she pushed and voted for FEMA to be rolled into DOHS, and how poorly that worked in the Katrina relief.
We can always hope. At least the Republicans say they are conservative. Either way, they are far better than a rat.
Actually, he did use some buses (don't know how many) - but only to take people to the Superdome, which had experienced violence and crime when used as a shelter in 1998 - that's why the National Guard was on hand to pat people down as they entered. Wouldn't it have been nice to dedicate some of those local and state resources to evacuation instead of crowd control?
BTW, interesting slideshow taken by a French Quarter resident who rode out the storm and got himself out last Friday.
I see the things after the buttons to post that says "No profanity, No oersonal attacks, No Racism or violence". Does it qualify as any of those if I say that I think that blanco, nagin, and their subordinates should all be taken in a plane, and dropped at 50,000 feet into the eye of the next major storm, without parachutes, to see if maybe that gives the storm a tummy ache and breaks up its center of rotation? 8) Just wondering.
Ebbert was also the guy who said this to the AP about the levee breach and the rising waters
"It's a very slow rise, and it will remain so until we plug that breach.I think we can get [the breach] stabilized in a few hours"
See: Is T. Ebbert [NOLA DHS chief] responsible for delay in large-scale response to levee breach?
I'd like to know how many people decided not to evacuate because they got a false sense of security from what Ebbert said.
Yep. That's what I always tell people is the difference between people like us here, and democrat voters. I am a Republcan third. Christian first, American second, and a Republican so long as the Republican party sticks to their plank, doesn't cave to liberal pressure, and defends first and foremost to the founding principles of the Constitution and Christian ideology which allowed the founding of the U.S.A. in the first place. The day those things stop happening in the GOP is the day they lose my vote. Democrat voters are just zombie drones doing what they're told when. I got this from my cousin a few weeks ago that is SO FUNNYY! http://users3.ev1.net/~rfet/misc/Greatest_Movie_Line_Ever.wmv . Ain't it the truth?
AMEN! And the fact he used them to get them to the Super Dowm with NO FOOD AND WATER makes it even worse. That displays a recognition of the fact he had them at his disposal! They should have been used to get those people out of the city to other cities for temperary shelter where food and water is. I STILL can't get over the fact that the idiot was herding tens of thousands of people in the Dome for what he KNEW would be 2 to 4 days, and he knew there were NO provisions there, and didn't leave and kind of authority structure or medical personnel there. HOW DO YOU NOT THINK OF THAT when you're mayor??? That's so bonehead obvious Forrest Gump would have thought of it! "My Momma always said, 'life is like an evacuation'. You're always gonna need food and water when you get were yer' goin'".
