When the media is not throwing them softballs, these professional race baiters can really reveal their stupidity and arrogance. They only have one dead horse to beat, and, in this crisis, they have not the slightest clue as to any live horse.
Exactly my thought; the interview with him truly highlighted the obsolescence of the whole schtick of him and his fellow race baiters. This crisis is illustrating how we truly don't need to hear any more from him and his kind.
Is there any rationale at all for giving these poverty pimps and race baiters air time in the present crisis?
Don't you know the white liberal gospel: black people must have a Lying-fraud-in-chief whom we can look to as their "spokesman?" It saves us the trouble of actually listening to them and learning truly what they're trying to say.
The results in New Orleans today, in this crisis, are the direct product of a black political machine that has risen to power in the city and proved utterly unable to manage it, to prevent its decline and to plan for and cope with crisis. It has all been graft and corruption replacing graft and corruption (See A.J. Liebling "The Earl of Louisiana"), only now the sport has gone out of it and it is far more racist (only in the reverse direction) than it has ever been. It is only the charm, unique culture and the strength of NO as the most vital port connecting the river system to the sea that has prevented it from becoming Detroit south.
Gosh, I wonder how Holland came to be before they knew how to do all that expensive stuff. And those polders are so productive. It's a good thing for them they didn't know about environmentalism and its dogma or they wouldn't have half their country.
Nagin won on a promise to fight the endemic corruption, which really is almost impossible for someone who has not lived there to grasp in its ubiquity, but he seems to have spent all his thinking and energy on fighting the corruption and none on actually leading the city and planning for the future.
Hope that's true, been trying to reach some NO friends who fled to Hattiesburg yesterday but couldn't get the phone at the house where they'd gone to answer; think it was because portable phones there requiring power. Will try again later today.
I think that if you think the liberal, race-baiting, government is the be all and end all Dem machine politics that gave us the "Great" society disaster and cities like present day Detroit can create anything like a bright future for the devestated Gulf South you're nuts. Wealth is not created by that approach, poverty is.
You too! Stay strong!
lol. Yes, you are right -- I would have evac'd BEFORE Katrina Hit. No different from what I would tell my teen-aged children when they were going to be home alone for a bit of time -- If someone enters this home, you grab the cell and SPLIT immediately -- there is nothing I own or possess more valuable than YOU.
Yours is a lovely post, Siobhan. Anyone who has been devasted by fire, earthquake, etc., having survived is glad to have survived; but are always surprised by what made it through the catastrophe. And those things have often giving great introspective meaning to the survivors.
Have you ever wished you were a congressman, a newscaster, and editorialist so you could tell lots of people what they should think?
Whoever said that the media was rational??????
BTT!!!!!!
They all were very emotional, but I really think most of that was really coming from their hearts. I don't think any of them had seen anything quite like this before.

Go Eagles (and Steelers)......did you know that the two teams together used to be called the "Steagles"?
that whole Fox episode staged.
That's exactly what I thought. You can no longer trust the media. They are a disgrace, Hype, agenda,
