As much as I loath this guy, and he's probably playing fast and loose with the facts, he brings up something that needs to be addressed. Most of us are outraged at all the "pork" in our federal budget. The last budget was obscene. If we can afford a couple a hundred million dollars to build a "traffic" bridge for a Republican in Alaska, why do we not fund levies for a Democrat in NOLA?
anyone else notice how hitlary has again disappeared?
I thought she was on vacation in Hawaii, with her "husband" Sir William?
If I am going to read this (((puke))) I need more periods and paragraphs.
"In response to this potential crisis, four leading environmental groups conducted a joint expert study, concluding in 2004 that without wetlands protection New Orleans could be devastated by an ordinary, much less a Category 4 or 5, hurricane."
Dear Sidney, Even if "wetlands protection" could be accomplished so soon after "four leading environmental groups" arrived at their conclusion in 2004, your article doesn't mention whether such measures would have helped against a Category 4 or 5 hurricane.
I'm just waiting for the enviro-wackos to start with the line that "The hurricane was sent by the Earth Mother Goddess Gaia to punish the evil Bush for not signing the Kyoto Treaty". Just wait, it's on the way.
The sun rises in the morning - It's Bush's fault!
Water flows downhill - It's Bush's fault!
Sidney Blumenthal is very close to both Clintons, he's probably trying to curry favor with hitlery in order to get a job on her campaign staff.
This is Hillary's lap dog. He speaks for her when he is not writing for ultra left-wing garbage like The Guardian.
We won't have to suffer through another photo of her in a swimsuit, will we?
You don't have to wait for that one. Robert Kennedy Jr. wrote it yesterday.
My favorite part of his piece is where the hurricane, like an angry Frankenstein's monster, takes a last minute turn towards Mississippi to try to kill its creator - Haley Barbour.
I kid you not. That's his theory.
Liberals have 0 concept of "accountability for ones actions". This agenda is pushed mainly by the trial lawyers so they can sue for any reason possible and no one is responsible for their own actions.
Like people who buy a house near an airport and then bitch that its noisy all the time.
whole = hole...sorry (it's early)
"A year ago the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers proposed to study how New Orleans could be protected from a catastrophic hurricane, but the Bush administration ordered that the research not be undertaken."
The Bush administration does not fund these studies. That is an out-right falsehood. These studies are funded at the Corps division level with additional resources being allocated by Congress, if needed.
The Corps does feasibility studies all the time. It has nothing to do with the president.
Do you know where I can find that story?
His isn't called "Sid Vicious" for nothing.
Even Hillary's gang of harpy lesbians was afraid of him because of his blackmail threats.
This thug is Damien in cheap black shoes.
You nailed it. Its a Donk town, thru and thru.
Facts in, merda out by the noted Mr. Blumenthal
The Princess of Darkness speaks.
I read it here on FreeRepublic and I can't remember which thread I saw it. Sorry.
