The nonsense and deception spewed by the media and lying Rat politicians continues to erode any credibility of said, but the damage doesn't really stop there, it does reflect on our Nation as a whole, it does undermine the honest and credible amongst us. It breeds more of the same, Can we honestly say that truth and common sense are thriving in America, or rather, has deception and nonsense become more prevalent in our everyday lives and does it affect us?

The Mayor and NO and the GOV, of LA are glaring examples of how incompetence empowered through deception and nonsense affects us all.

We have become captives of BS and more BS, because we continue to go down a road of Placating, Patronizing and PCing America into idiocy and doom, will it ever stop in time...

WRONG!!

Remember this. . .everything the Dums are doing is exceedingly SHORT-SIGHTED because they have no plan, no ideas and TRUTH is not on their side. This is the Dums summer of hell going from "Bush commited treason by having Valerie Plume outted" to "Bush had Mother Sheehan's son murdered" and now, "Bush has failed to stop Katrina." IT AIN'T WORKING!!!

Look, people not having their bottle water and sandwiches for a couple of days is not going to translate into a political movement that will topple Bush or his coming successor. And whereas, Jesus had the power to calm the winds and waves, when I last checked, he wasn't planning to run in 08.

The worst is behind, from now the recovery begins. . .in a couple of weeks the bad period immediately after Katrina hit will be long forgotten as people, money and machine get to work rebuilding. The Dums will move on to the next failed travesty.

That's not fair! Romney is also investigating reports of gas price-gouging! [/sarcasm]

Romney filled in for a talk-show host for an hour yesterday. Babbled on about how long it took for relief. Never mentioned that Bush was the one who strong-armed Nagin into calling for any evacuation at all or that Bush took the initiative by declaring a state of emergency well before the storm even hit. And like most commentators, he never pointed out that this was a one-two punch: the hurricane seemed to have spared NO the worst. It was only on Tuesday that the levee breached, and IIRC it was hours before anyone realized how serious that would be.

And people think Romney has a serious chance of the Republican nomination???

And you will just like the MSM perpetuate that lie and cover the truth of the ineptitude and almost criminal incompetance of the No and LA local and state govts.

Get off your highhorse! I'm not perpetuating any LIE. I'm just saying, it doesn't matter whose fault it is, America had the resources to have prevented it! The MSM/dem will do everything in their power to blame this on Bush and those pics of ppl sufering down in NO are going to make everybody, state, local, feds, Bush look irresponsible.

The STATE and LOCAL officials down in NO were totally inept and the results are evident, but that is reality and were talking "perception" that can stick here if someone doesn't make it painfully clear what the reality truly is and that's NOT going to be the MSM/dems.

The "disgrace" applies to Wexler et al who are politicising the national disaster.

Actually his home is NO. I would say that if anyone had wanted to be ay ground zero immediately after the storm it would have been him, but then there was Da Mayor and her highness the Gov. standing in the way.

What about the prissy mayor of NO. He could have evacuated his people.

" In the meantime the people responsible for all the chaos are Democrat Governor Blanco and Democrat Mayor Nagin. Two of the most incompetent people in the political history of Louisiana and that my friend is quite an accomplishment. " ... in the wrong direction, that is.

Move out to the country, hord fuel supplies and weapons, and just watch and wait for the comming meltdown of the cities.
The further away from people the better. These Moronic Democrat moonbats and MSM are destroying this country.
But on the upside, it shows that their marxist communist craddle to grave government care system JUST DOES NOT WORK, as evidenced by NO. All the self reliant people got out, all those waiting for "the Gubbermint" or "they's" to do everything for them, including spoon feeding them are standing in their own crap.
It all boils down to one thing, and that is Nagin didn't get those people out with the equipment he had at his disposal.
He didn't stock up food and water, establish distribution centres, and maintain law and order. It's too late AFTER the disaster hits.
If it wasn't for Bush declaring NO a disaster area BEFORE the storm hit, They still wouldn't be there yet.

He did. He put his family on a plane Fri night/Sat morning. The tourists he got out a day or so ago.

Wexler is a good example of boobs who:

1. want to ban military recruiters from public schools

2. continually vilify the man who now commands the military.

Now Wexler is making a case that those military people who somehow failed to escape the nasty recruiters are the salt of the earth and a suddenly necessary instrument for good, rather than merely the duped lackeys of an imperialist, military/indust... oh, you know the rest. It was lame then, and doubly lame now.

Adding to that hypocrisy, Wexler has come to ascribe to the aforementioned commander - a man who Wexlerites have universally described as too dumb to walk and chew gum simultaneously - incompetence (if not maliciousness) for not using what can only be described as previously-unremarked supernatural powers of prescience.

Wexler isn't just a pantload, he's two pantloads and a matching vest.

Wait a minute. The democratic governor is holding his breath on allowing help in.

Wexler is right. Bush should have realised that the Dem Governor and Dem Mayor were too incompetant to handle anything.

***When did Wexler get his double degree in meteorology and prophecy?***

A few days ago.
'Rumor has it' he clicked the popup ad on Drudge for the University of Phoenix - his 'Degrees' came priority mail :-)

Ok great, I hope your right. I just see the disaster down there, in a DEMOCRAT controlled bastion, looking worse than Buriut in the 70's! I want desperately to believe that the MSM/dems are done and this definately shows me they are a complete disaster in everything they touch after this debacle in NO.

They haven't been able to touch Bush so far with perception, I just think this might have a little more bite to it than the other schemes they've perpetuated.

Yo, Wexler, keep up the partisan whine. It helps our side all the more.

That's my thoughts as well. With all the pictures, coverage and information available, this type of nonsense can't possibly be gaining any type of traction with the public, can it?
