No, actually, Blanco will be the commission that investigates the incident. Remember, she's the one who built the wall that prevented ...

Get everybody out and blow the river levees. It's the only way to be sure.

If this is true this shows how goddamn stupid and incompetent the New Orleans police are. We already know how cowardly many of them are when they deserted their jobs after the hurricane.

From AP:
The Army Corps of Engineers says the contractors were shot at, then police shot fatally the gunmen who fired on the contractors. The contractors were not killed, the Army Corps said.



OOPS!

Need yet a third thread!

OK, thats it. President Bush needs to Federalize New Orleans, clean out the city government and police. Have the US military in charge of everything. Tell the LA mayor and governor to go away and not come back.

Democrats in LA are not capable of handling this disaster.

I am sickened beyond words.

NO is totally out of control on the local and state levels.
The incompetents must step aside.

WTF isn't martial law being declared, and the Nat Guard armed with live ammo, and the NOPD being sent to Las Vegas?... or anywhere? They're useless.

The first one was pulled I suppose because: 1) it was full of racially charged implications 2)it said "thugs" were shot & killed

Repeat is worth it.
