“Why didn’t we have water and canned food to take care of ourselves or a plan in a time of crisis? This is on us.”
If they had a Mayor with half a brain, and a Governess who do things other than cry and whimper, they wouldn't need the food and water.
I saw where one of the "Williams Sisters" (tennis), said that she would donate $ 100.00 for each ACE she made in her next tennis match. She lost the next match and nothing else was said.
"Start with crime. That looters ran unchecked after the hurricane isn't surprising when you consider that criminals have had the run of the city for years."
"It is a perennial contender for Murder Capital. The 264 homicides last year were a drop of only 11 from 2003 - and the first decline in five years."...
"Then there's Mayor Ray Nagin, a Democrat, who has blamed everybody but himself. Maybe he has forgotten his plans for dealing with Katrina."
"Last July, his office prepared DVDs warning that, if the city ever had to be evacuated, residents were on their own. According to a July 24 article in The Times-Picayune (spotted by the Web's Drudge Report), "Mayor Ray Nagin, local Red Cross Executive Director Kay Wilkins and City Council President Oliver Thomas drive home the word that the city does not have the resources to move out of harm's way an estimated 134,000 people without transportation."
"Jay-Z plans on making sure that next time a disaster takes place, there will be funds reserved specially to help black people. He expressed a desire to collaborate with Sean “Diddy” Combs to create this type of savings." Well that might cut down on some of the looting anyway.
You know, they are promoting cooperation among all the races! Isn't that easy to see, because we are a colorblind people, especially the democrats and these rappers. Blind to any color beyond black.
Ummm...because you bought rims instead?
And a thumpin' system...
My bad. I was reading the Bork thread when I posted this.

That would be Moon Landrieu, daddy of the LA Senator and LA Lt. Governor. A lot of good he would have been.
Phi Beta Kappa members of the Jesse Jackson School of 'Bamboozlin.
Just imagine how easy it must be to live your life in such ignorance.
They are so ignorant that they will never know they are ignorant.
Nothing quite like a crisis for revealing folks' true character (or lack therof). Bigoted racial paranoia is ugly ... and refusal to rebuke paranoid racial bigots is cowardice.
These ignorant, perpetually hostile 'rappers' need to STFU.
A cabal of idiots.
But whatever is a "true Black Man"? By what objective criteria am I to distinguish a "true Black Man" from (his presumptive opposite) a "false Black Man"? For that matter, what is a "Black Man"? By what objective criteria am I to distinguish him from, presumably, Red, Orange, Yellow, Green, Blue, Indigo, Violet, Brown, or White Men? Are there also Ultraviolet and Infrared Men? Are these all different species?
Enquiring minds ...
LOL!
Martin Luther King is rolling in his grave.
Yup those white people suer are racist... Just about everybody I have seen here in Minnesota raising money, food, cloths, and the like for NOLA are white. Why did they not send it sooner?
Apparently not according to these fine spokespersons for racism in America.
I like his music but I agree: WHO CARES!
