Slowness of recovery of Katrina dead criticized

Reincarnation just isn't as fast as it used to be.

[GrandEagle]

It's Bushes fault.....
Sorry, I couldn't help it.

[E. Pluribus Unum]

I'd like to see this b***h in prison.

[TravisBickle]

Is there ANYTHING these people don't complain about??

[Hi Heels]

"I cannot stand by while this vital operation is not being handled appropriately," she said.

Never bothered her before today.......

So I guess they want the recovery teams to get themselves killed hauling out the dearly departed.
I may be a cold hearted bastard in this case but my answer would be "You want the body out faster, go get it yourself."

[Eagles Talon IV]

This loser and the rest of the lib fools are becoming VERY upset at the number of dead being found because it is to low. Remember they were hysterically screeching that 10,000 were dead. We all know that to Democrats what is bad for America is good for them and what is good for America is bad for them. With the news coming out of how badly the local officials screwed up the libs are desperate to deflect attention away from themselves.

[toddlintown]

They're dead...and not going anywhere.

Reincarnation just isn't as fast as it used to be.

That's what I thought the first time too, I suspected a scrapple face post.

But if she wants them picked up faster, she can get her shovel and go down there herself. It isn't even dry yet. They will be finding dead for months.

Shese got volunteers from all over the country working for free and she bitches because the people cleaning up HER mess aren't doing it fast enough.

'I need bodies!"
'I made sure as little as possible would be done to get those peons out of there so I know they have to be there.'
'How can I keep getting sympathy ($) without thousands of bodies?'

[Brian Mosely]

I posted this on the other thread and thought it needs to be here too....

We've been seeing some stuff that would indicate that some on the left are trying to steer this into another scandal or "gate".

Apparently , Kenyon International is a wholly owned subsidiary of Service Corporation International, a Houston based corporation.

SCI is a company owned by a friend of Bush who was allegedly part of something called Funeralgate, "the scandal involving Bush and Joe Allbaugh, former director of FEMA, in 1999" according to some e-mails we're seeing. 

"Also, SCI has settled claims for $100 million for allegedly dumping bodies in the woods, among other atrocities," according to the claims.

"Bush Cronyism Extends To The Dead" has been posted here and apparently also to DU  

[atomicpossum]

Yes, Governor, but the NUMBER of dead is more your fault, isn't it?

[Dark Skies]

Didn't anyone ever tell the Guv when she was growing that people don't respect complainers?

"Slowness of recovery of Katrina dead criticized"

Blanco does have a point. She killed them a hell of a lot faster than they are recovering them.

[longtermmemmory]

I wonder how many people recovered their own dead in order to keep the direct deposit checks flowing?

If the government never finds out X is dead, then the other family can continue to collect the check.

I bet there will be a longevity explosion in NO.

[Yo-Yo]

Blanco said she has signed a contract with Kenyon International Emergency Services after the company threatened to pull out of the state because it had not yet signed a formal contract with FEMA.

Knowing Louisiana politics, I wonder how much of a kickback Blanco is in line to receive.

[Yellow Rose of Texas]

Blanco said FEMA's failure to sign a contract with Kenyon had slowed the entire recovery process.

Which FEMA, local, state, or federal?

[CommieCutter]

Way to go Bush! Take the blame and let them kick you when you're down. WTF!
B!itch Blanco you should be in prison. Mayor Nagan you should be in prison. To hell with you!

[Just A Nobody]

Louisiana's governor condemned .....
"I cannot stand by while this vital operation is not being handled appropriately," she said.

15 posts and no one has said it.

This ignorant beatch has more gonads than the entire Republican party!!

SHE, of ALL people, has the unmitigated gall to "condemn" anyone of anything?

The vital operation was evacuating the area. As someone else said, the dead aren't going anywhere.

This is nuts ... and BS.

[Peace will be here soon]

FEMA spokesman David Passey : "He said from the beginning FEMA had expected Louisiana to take the lead in the collection of bodies and FEMA was satisfied that the state had signed a contract with the company."

So, here we go again. FEMA says it was the states duty to remove the bodies, and the Gov. said it was FEMA`s responsibility.

So is the Gov. tryng to cover her backside for not getting this contract done, or is FEMA lying about its duties?

[Jaded]

Blanco deserves to be prosecuted. She drops down off the rafter she hangs from, summons the adoring but accursed mediots and makes absolutely ludicrous claims.

The raving lunatic and her beyotch, Nagin, are the reason there are so many dead in the first place.

gggggrrrrrrrrrrrrrr
