How come the New York Times isn't talking about this leftist-inspired ecological calamity that sacrificed the New Orleans poor, so that rich leftists could enjoy hiking through the outlying wetlands? What hypocrites they all are!

I'll bet they would have allowed it if the residents were snail darters rather than poor people that the enviros didn't know.

I heard that these levees are run by little fifdoms in N.O. Each levee has some sort of graft ridden committee that decides what is to be done. No one has mentioned that some of these "officials " were just idicted for accounting irregularities found by the Feds in these little fifdoms. And then they want to blame Bush for nothing being done. A-HOLES

Yep, I have mentioned this on a couple of threads. The US Army Corp of Engineers wanted to put flood gates where the Lake goes into the Gulf. That would have kept the storm surge out of the Lake and the 17th street canal levee would not have been breached.

I insinuated that that was probably the case day's ago. My comments were based on experience in OC CA and the Prado Dam project delay of 35 years.
Does that make me a prophet?

Even those wacky, Leftist Dutch have flood gates. They have the world's largest flood gates.
