Point taken, but I am almost certain that Brazile, who I think now works for CNN, earns a smidge over $25K per year... I understand that and picked a low number to prove the point.

I didn't say it was right... I definitely understand your point about those that are doing the killing in the Middle East.

"Don't ship evacuees far, Jesse Jackson says" Yeah; can't be having them wandering too far off the democRAT plantation now, can we?
"It is racist to call American citizens refugees,'' he said."
Jesse Jackass....it is YOU who are the racist. It is YOU who act as if only the black victims matter. The white ones had it coming, eh Jesse?
Hey Jesse. Here's a message for you!

Jackass is usually good for comic relief; but, he needs stfu now!!
Just heard on the local radio hear we in upper eastt Tennessee are taking in 500 from the disaster. Have not yet heard details - the story I caught was someone asking for us to make up shoeboxes of toys, books, etc for the children.
This nonsense about not being "acculturated" makes me want to vomit. The folks who are fortunate to land here are going to find a very warm welcome. We will give them what they need to get on their feet. We will find jobs for them.
Any who decide they want to start new lives here will be will be encouraged to do so and helpd to that end. Getting off Jesse's plantation is a good first step.
He sounds in full panic mode.

The racial balance won't change in Louisiana much. The political effect of this is beyond imagining on a macro level, at least on a state level, maybe national. But the state will lose in 2012 one and maybe two congressional districts. Jindal and Jefferson might have to find private sector jobs, or run against each other at a minimum.

Vote fraud is Jackson's specialty but he needs the numbers for cover. A shift in population will push LA into GOP territory.

Jackson said evacuees from the Gulf Coast are not refugees, a word he believes suggests subhumans or criminals. "It is racist to call American citizens refugees,'' he said.
Judging by the rapes, murders, looting, and criminal behavior that have been going on, calling them refugees isn't racist, but accurate.

"The left doesn't want a melting pot America. They want a balkanized nation of special interests groups they can play off of one another with envy and bigotry."
Bears repeating. Very astute.

My mom says Baton Rouge is overwhelmed. The population has doubled. The school system can't take in all of the new kids. All the grocery stores have lines to the back of the store and are constantly running out of stuff. Gas lines are long in Baton Rouge. There simply is not enough resources for one or two cities or states to absorb half a million refugees. Many of these people cannot return for up to six months or more. They will likely want to find homes and jobs where they are relocated to. Baton Rouge, Houston, San Antonio, and Dallas simply cannot absorb this crush of humanity. How about they move in with you, Jesse?

They ignore the skin color of the mayor who now sits in office figuring out what to do with flooded buses that could have been used to evacuate people. To do otherwise would be politically inexpedient.
Any human who doesn't see the transparency of JJ's agenda needs some serious special ed.

"Hmmm, where's Jesse's hometown? How bout we send a couple hundred thousand there and let him put them up? Particularly the ones who only stayed behind to loot."
That would be Chicago, and we already have Democrap Mayor for Life Daley, and Congressman Jesse Jackson Jr looting the place quite well thank you.

A shift in population will push LA into GOP territory. Let's see if his up and coming rhetoric shows this to be a concern of his.
He's a Reverend NOT a politician. /sarc

That's because you need to familiarize yourself with the appropriate term - enculturation.
Jackson is such a moron he not only used the incorrect word, but brought attention to the reverse use of the word.

"It's a long ways from home," he said. "It's a long way from where they have lived, where they were acculturated."
Ive lived as an adult in various places in Virginia, Hawaii, Maryland, Georgia, South Carolina and three foreign countries. Ive had short stays in too many places to bother counting. Ive never had a problem. Does that mean I have never been acculturated, that I am superior in some way, or that the people Jessie is referring to are inferior in some way?
As a side note I wonder how much money Jessie has contributed to the relief effort.
