Would mothballs make any noise in a vacuum?
If Governor Blanco did not know that the President was coming back to Louisiana on Monday, she was either asleep at the wheel or sniffing glue!!!
Thing is it wasn't "Unannounced." The news was out a few days ago. Blanco wasn't listening, or did not want to admit she was.
Love you, Mr. President!
Well, that confirms it; she's completely clueless and out of the loop.
This visit was announced late Friday.
Yep. Brown and Blanco deserve each other, they are charter members of "The Buck Never Got Here" Club.
hum, i knew last night the president was going to baton rouge and the governor of the state didnt't i shocked i tell you shocked. Did she look like a sour puss or was it my evil republican thinking
Yes it was. What have they been doing??
I don't think you really know what you are talking about. On the other hand, Haley Barbour does and he has praised FEMA for the help they've given to Mississippi.
And I want to know why.
---"If President Bush says my little brother, the Lieutenant governor of Louisiana, didn't help Governor Blanco enough, I'll punch him square in the jaw, I swear to God. Literally."---
A US Senator threatening the President physically? And taking the Lord's name in vain?
My, my, my!
Dumb and dumber...even people on the left are complaining Bush is down there too much!
>>>“We had no idea the president was coming,” Mann said.
Everybody else knew he was coming today, where the hell was she? You know how I heard it? Because I saw this exchange between a Fox News reporter and the Mayor of Baton Rouge:
Mayor: John Travolta will be coming today to visit the relief shelters...
Reporter: Yes, and I understand you have another important visitor coming tomorrow?
Mayor: (looking positively giddy) Oh yes! Oprah! Oprah will be here...
Reporter: (looking embarrassed for him) Um...I meant... isn't the President coming in tomorrow?
Mayor: (somewhat deflated) Oh yes. Yes, the President will be here.
Not sure what your question is, see the link. The rest is simply my opinion.

Good. If anyone needs an a**-kicking, it's the state and local officials - they have the first responsibility, not the feds.
Yep, since the MSM is hellbent on assigning blame, the public outcry should directed be were it's deserved. With the incompetent state and local officials.
More likely scenario: --- the President decided not to waste his valuable time meeting with Gov. Blanco; but to meet with those who actually know what's going on.
"The states are soverign and Blanco, be she an R or a D owes Bush no explanation nor does he have any authority over her or any other governor.
I bristle at the thought of the federal government imposing its will on any state for any reason."
The States are soverign, and the feds should not be allowed to impose it's will without good reason. But the soverign state of Louisana has not imposed it's will on the people of LA. Nature abhors a vacuum, and so does the MSM.
If LA does not do something, and President Bush gets blamed, then someone needs to do something. If that's the feds, so be it. MY GOD, there are no police and fire in New Orleans. Someone has to keep order.
bill
that is exactly what is happening....
just heard from an evacuee who went to Houston, and is now in Pensacola...the hotel in Houston picked up their room, and they got a bunch of walmart cards from people they didnt know.
they stated emphatically they wont go back to the west bank of N.O.
