Absolute classic this one is, I saw it when it happened about half an hour ago. Did she seriously just try to blame RONALD REAGAN for part of the levee funding mismanagement?
Saw that lying bitch on meet the press fill the place with BS higher than the floodwaters and felt like tossing a round in my brand new one week old TV set...!
Yeah, right, whole lotta brain activity there.
"The President gambled and lost."
Geeze o'freekin pete - can't these people accept any responsibility for anything they have done or not done??
Thanks for posting that link.
Mary Landrieu exposed for the puke she is.
Speaking of liberal liars..
I read a very liberal columnist from Detroit Free Press. It was in their rag last week and published in the Los Angeles Daily News today under a different title: "Trials should follow New Orleans debacle" It's so biased, I can't find it in myself to post it(Not found in search). If interested it's here:
ROCHELLE RILEY: A poor excuse for inaction

This woman is deranged. Chris Wallace could not contain himself from snickering to her bizarre answers and justifications on why every Republican dating back to 1980 were exclusively to blame.
I have no extra strength Tums left....should I watch it?
Uh....let's see if I understand this. Bush gave more to Louisiana because he was running a surplus (for a whole 8 months until 9-11-01) then Clinton did because Clinton was left with a deficit from Reagan. I thought the DNC talking points were that Clinton had a surplus and Bush spent us into a deficit.
ping. She is an idiot.
Acc. to Landrieu, folks down there need mass transit. Had NO had mass transit, everyone would have left.
No response to the hundreds of buses lying under water. I guess buses don't qualify as mass transit.
I'll say it again: People need to get rid of those anachronistic, elitist Dems. Clean up the South once and for all.
BTTT
I saw the beginning of this live but had to click off when that vicious smarmy puke Mary Landrieu evaded the question about the wasted school buses by launching into a rant about the need for more federally funded mass transit.
Now I've watched the whole thing from the posted link and I'm even more nauseous. She is a perfect example of a weasel politico evading every question and filling the air time with her own rants. This is useful, though, for a glimpse of the developing DNC talking points: they are desperate to deflect all blame from state and local 'RATS in LA and NOLA, and also the Clinton administration, so they will change the subject every time relevant comparisons are made. LA pols preferred pork to protecting NOLA? Clinton spent less than Bush on LA flood control? Mayor Nagin wasted hundreds of empty buses??? None of it matters to 'Rats in a rage, they simply change the subject and spew their own talking points. Chris Wallace did a pretty good job of trying to get her to give a straight answer, but the only thing that might have worked would be to tape her mouth shut and answer for her. She was NOT going to give an honest answer.....
I figure she's on the attack because her only other option would be to be on the defensive, an even worse place for a Louisiana Democrat to be, not because she'll stand to gain politically from it.
I saw Landrieu on FOX and she wilted under the tough questioning by Chris Wallace. She was visibly nonplussed and hostile. She couldn't say why Mayor "schoolbus" Nagin failed to utilize hundreds of busses to evacuate people and left them to be flooded; why the governor didn't allow the Red Cross entry when they were ready to go; and, why much of the allocated funds for flood control and levee maintenance were diverted by Landrieu for pork. She tried to filibuster about Bush but it was very obvious that this was just a ruse to avoid answering questions about the failures of the governor, the mayor, and Senator Landrieu which were made abundantly obvious by Wallace's questions. She squeaked into office the last time she ran for senator and she clearly knows that after the flood debacle she's political toast.
"Mary Landrieu Spins...."
Why does this title make me think of Linda Blair in "The Exorist" movie?
She, like almost all Democrats, is a liar and a piece of garbage.
She tap danced around each and every question, and especially the flooded buses. She is a slimy piece of (fill in the blank).
