WMV of Landieu interview

[Major_Risktaker]

"..this mayor and mayors in cities all over this country have enough trouble getting people to work on a sunny day, let alone on a day of a hurricane.."

Today on Meet the Depressed Timmy asked Nagin about the buses and Nagin say "they (who ever they is) did have any drivers" and that was it.

So this is what the HONERABLE SENATOR Mary Landrieu talking points sounded like to me: "we ain't be able to get no poeples to drives da buses too days befoe da huricannie comes around to Norlns folks. Troubles is get'em d'em poeples to worlks on d'em sunnie days lets alone on d'em hurricane days.."."

I was astonished - as Brit clearly was - that Juan did not know that Blank-O had refused to allow either the Red Cross or the Salvation Army to bring food/water to the people in the Super Dome

Typical trick of scumbag liberals when "debating". When hit with a huge fact that destroys their entire position, they say "I haven't heard anything about that", like a five-year old that covers his eyes to make the broken cookie jar go away.

When they do this - I hit'em with a second punch, like - "It's a fact. Look it up. Just because you can't be bothered to know the facts, doesn't make them go away."

[RobbyS]

He didn't get much opportunity. She was in full fillibuster mode.

[canalabamian]

She...was in Washington with Chris Wallace. Senator Vitter was at the Astrodome...

Excellent point! Actions speaking louder than words again.

[canalabamian]

Missed that. Thanks. Just proves why Brit has a show and Juanita is over at Nationalist People's Radio.

[maizey]

Our sermon at Mass today was that we must forgive everyone.....Oh, Lord, forgive me, I just can't forgive these liberal idiots like Mary Landrieu.....I'll try when she is no longer in office.

[Cboldt]

Because Major Garrett broke this story on Brit's show on FOX News ...

And CNN had it days before Major Garrett. Well, LArry King had it, but CNN played a Juan Williams and kept the story below the radar.

Aired September 2, 2005 - 21:00 ET

KING: We're back.
Joining us now in Washington is Marty Evans, the President and CEO of the American Red Cross. She traveled with the president today. The Red Cross is not in New Orleans, why?

MARTY EVANS, RED CROSS PRESIDENT AND CEO: Well, Larry, when the storm came our goal was prior to landfall to support the evacuation. It was unsafe to be in the city. We were asked by the city not to be there and the Superdome was made a shelter of last resorts and, quite frankly in retrospect, it was a good idea because otherwise those people would have had no shelter at all.

We have our shelters north of the city. We're prepared as soon as they can be evacuated, we're prepared to receive them in Texas, in other states, but it was not safe to be in the city and it's not been safe to go back into the city. They were also concerned that if we located, relocated back into the city people wouldn't leave and they've got to leave.

...

KING: Marty, how would you respond?

EVANS: Well, Larry, we were asked, directed by the National Guard and the city and the state emergency management not to go into New Orleans because it was not safe. We are not a search and rescue organization. We provide shelter and basic support and so we were depending, we are depending on the state and the agencies to get people to our shelters in safe places.

Because they handled things accordingly, as they're supposed to do.....just doesnt fit into the agenda of "Blame Bush"

[Bekki4Bush]

My posting on her website

Sen. Landrieu

Why did the dems not do as they do on election day??Where was the mayor, the gov., their senator....all dems??? When the order to evacuate came, why was the plan not followed to bus these destitute people out?? BEFORE THE BUSES WERE UNDER WATER< THERE WAS TIME Your state and city is responsible and has been run by dems for years...including your family.

If you were as good at busing the poor people to safety as you were at busing them to the polls to vote, none of them would have died.
Your answers on Fox News Sunday were evasive, and blatantly political. You showed you do not care about anything but blaming anyone republican who was ever in power, though none have been in power in your own state for years.

I have family in Louisiana, who are safe thanks to THEIR OWN fortitude and common sense. They all see what the local and state politicians have accomplished after years of corruption, diverted funds, and ambition. They see dead people who should have been saved by the very people they voted for year after year and left them to fend for themselves. Shame on you

[Finny]

Quix, that is one of the BEST prayers I've read! Amen!

[StAnDeliver]

Wow. What a thorough fisking. I would have never thought Wallace would have had it in him.

Hey Mary, how are you going to replace 100,000 votes in 2008?

Landrieu [D] 6 542,974
Terrell [R] 603,160

[Cboldt]

It's so biased, I can't find it in myself to post it ...

Wanna bet this person changes the tune about criminal prosecution, once it's clear who did what?

Federal officials who ignored, who turned back much-needed supplies, who sat waiting for paperwork while people died, should be investigated for criminal negligence.

[Quix]

WOW! BLUSH! humbled. Thanks.

May God respond as He sees best.

But I have seen some very dramatic answers to such prayers the last 45 years . . . some with people who were causing an endless parade of employees and others great suffering. And who seemed immune to absolutely every kind of effort to get them to change or be removed. I've seen it with professing Christians and Christian leaders and with clearly evil people.

Sadly, changing the people has not occurred as often as the people have been removed. Some, particularly dramatically.

[Cboldt]

Anybody know about the press releases Mary Mary was accusing the GOP or administration of putting out? She said something about "not putting out press releases like [the administration is] putting blame on the locals for not running school busses."

I haven't seen any such press releases? Have there been aby such press releases? Or she letting us know that teh DEMs plan a series of press releases -- well, I guess they have those now, called "reports" and "news articles."

[Paraclete]

As dems go, I thot Landrieu was one of the better ones. This performance was pathetic. I'm hoping the phoniness is pretty transparent to the Americans that count -- and vote.

The democrat party is slipping in the abyss.

[sgtbono2002]

You have obviously given this a great deal of time and thought &#8209; &#8209; I've learned from hearing your views. I want to be responsive to the needs of all Lousianans when I make decisions. Information from people like you is essential if I'm to reach that goal. Again, thanks for keeping in touch with me. Please let me know if I may be of assistance in the future. Sincerely, Mary Just thought I would send you a response, its unlikely you will get one from her , but if you do it will be on this order. Yes its a form response.

[fatteddy]

did they clone billery ????

[Leofl]

Sen Landrieu,

"Mayor Nagin and most Mayors, in this country, have a hard time getting their people to work on a sunny day less alone getting them out of the city in front of a hurricane"

Seems to me that if you have a problem getting them to work, then they obviously they need to find somewhere else to work......Democrats? Figures

[fellowpatriot]

"..this mayor and mayors in cities all over this country have enough trouble getting people to work on a sunny day, let alone on a day of a hurricane

What she really meant to say was "..this mayor has enough trouble getting to work on a sunny day, you expect him to carry out his mayoral duties during a hurricane?!"

[dirtboy]

Did she seriously just try to blame RONALD REAGAN for part of the levee funding mismanagement?

Oh, it gets better. She blamed lack of funding of mass transit by Bush for failing to evacuate the city.

I guess if there had been more funding, we could have seen a couple more hundred transit buses sitting in five feet of floodwater and all felt even better.
