Because the Mayor of NO is a race-baiting do-nothing. When you build your house on the color of your skin, actually doing something is pretty much out of the question.
Just strikes me of too little, too late. And much blame being bandied about without any real answers.
You are buying into the Lefty millieu. "Disasters" have always been primarily local issues -- until this one.
This is the first time in recorded history that the President of the USA was blamed for the event and attacked for the perceived "slow response."
Riots in Los Angeles? No Federal response required. Hurricane Andrew? Federal response in a few weeks is OK. Even 9/11 was initially responded to locally.
The idea that GWB should have somehow put on the Superman suit is idiotic to the extreme.
I can't understand why the State didn't move immediately on the thread - mobilise available vehicles etc. When citizens themselves were already reacting to what was an iminent crisis.
It just smacks of a whole lot of 'denial', until the monster was standing on the threshold.
The left wingers running the main stream media are out to manufacture a "Jonah." They play on the weakness and emotions of the uninformed with an eye to partisan advantage. They are going to continue to throw trash at any Republican President whatsoever - and hope that something sticks. Many citizens seem to have forgotten their basic civics lessons.
