Did Blanco attempt genocide at Superdome?
Ramblings' Journal ^ | 9.7.05 | Michael King

Posted on 09/07/2005 8:08:10 PM PDT by mhking

The Red Cross has confirmed to Fox News Channel's Major Garrett that they had requested permission to take food and medical supplies to the Louisiana Superdome in the hours immediately after Hurricane Katrina's landfall. That request was denied by none other than Louisiana Governor Kathleen Blanco.

Garrett appeared on Hugh Hewitt's syndicated radio program this evening to discuss the shocking revelation.

MG: Well, the Red Cross, Hugh, had pre-positioned a literal vanguard of trucks with water, food, blankets and hygiene items. They're not really big into medical response items, but those are the three biggies that we saw people at the New Orleans Superdom, and the convention center, needing most accutely. And all of us in America, I think, reasonably asked ourselves, geez. You know, I watch hurricanes all the time. And I see correspondents standing among rubble and refugees and evacuaees. But I always either see that Red Cross or Salvation Army truck nearby. Why don't I see that?

HH: And the answer is?

MG: The answer is the Louisiana Department of Homeland Security, that is the state agency responsible for that state's homeland security, told the Red Cross explicitly, you cannot come.

HH: Now Major Garrett, on what day did they block the delivery? Do you know specifically?

MG: I am told by the Red Cross, immediately after the storm passed.

The Louisiana Department of Homeland Security is directly under the command and direction of Governor Kathleen Blanco. The same Kathleen Blanco who has whined and blamed the federal government from her perch in Baton Rouge throughout this entire crisis. The same Kathleen Blanco who has stared at cameras with deer-in-headlight-glazed eyes since Hurricane Katrina made landfall. The same Kathleen Blanco who, after being asked about federal help prior to landfall said, "No." The same Kathleen Blanco who rescinded Mayor Ray Nagin's order to completely evacuate the city due to dangerous conditions just today.

Was Kathleen Blanco's goal the death of as many of those in the Superdome as possible?

She is an absolute disgrace and apparently has blood on her hands.

IIRC, during the morning of 8/29, Blanc-O called the use of the Superdoom "an interesting experiment" on national TV (The Today Show) when asked if the structure would hold.

I'm still wondering if it was FEMA or Louisiana that said no to WalMart's attempt to deliver water to the Jefferson parish.. Walmart says FEMA re-routed the water to a location that needed it more, but I'm starting to wonder if it was the state that said no and FEMA took advantage of the offer and got the water to someplace else.

On Sunday, when they started herding the unwashed masses into the Super Doom, (not a typo), I went to my 90 year old grandmother's house and turned on the TV. I told her we were about to witness the biggest disaster the U.S. has ever seen. I mentioned to her that I knew she lived through the 'Great Depression' but this would be worse and happen faster.

Then I said I thought the administration in LA was herding the poor, sick, homeless, drug addicts and disabled into the Superdoom, (again, not a typo), to kill them so they didn't have to support them, and then would blame the deaths on Bush for cutting funding and sending troops to Iraq. The libs used them to get their votes, and now they were being sentenced to death, and would use their deaths to get reelected. Oh, and as a bonus, they get a bunch of our tax dollars to rebuild without the burden of caring for those listed above.

Sorry if there are those on this forum that don't like my thinking, but...

That is what I think.

I'm a Kentucky Hillbilly, (proudly stated), and I could have organized an evacuation from NO. This seem deliberate.

This story is HUUUUUUGE.

I know, but I'm reaching -- on purpose -- to see if I'm tilting at windmills here, or if there was perhaps something more nefarious going on.

Blanco is a racist, even her last name means "White" in Spanish.


God I love throwing the race card right back in their faces.
