Whoa. A distinguished black gentleman on Fox just stated very clearly that the "blame" for this does not rest with President Bush. It rests with the folks responsible for providing leadership on the ground when the disaster strikes. Amazing that some people actually understand that.
This is a great segment. The local officials had money for x, y, z, but did nothing to upgrade the levies. They should be removed from power immediately...
I heard him.
I hope the Bush bashing freepers were listening and stop posting their nonsense.
Think his name is Herman Cain....
Anyone know who he is ??? (maybe he should be mayor ??)
As a casual but interested observer of New Orleans political history, I agree with the lady on Fox who just said if we start throwing money at New Orleans - we will just be throwing it at the same corrupt politicians who gave New Orleans this mess. (lot of paraphrasing here but that is the gist of what she was saying.) I am wondering if federally occupying NO for the next 10 years would clean out the cesspool.
