This isn't that surprising considering some of the other similar reports I've read. It is pitiful.

Bump!

Hello,

Bump to an important story, many were affected by the MTP theatrics, and need to understand the politics behind the performance. (My MIL totally came unglued as she watched this, and that is unforgivable in my world).

Glad to be here, MOgirl

I remember seeing this man....It brought me to tears. I had no idea it was an untrue story. Thank you for posting this

I saw it also. I knew at the time that he was a Dem (because Demmy Russert failed to mention Broussard's party affiliation), so I was reasonably sure that they were indeed crocodile tears, put on for the camera.

I hardened my heart, and didn't buy Broussard's pathetic performance. And now, it turns out that my well-honed political instincts were right...

"Yes, he is under a federal investigation .. I believe it is for fraud"

Oh, so that was what he was really crying about. A real user/loser.

I was disgusted, true story or not. Does dignity get a pass when there's a hurricane?

Broussard has his own Wikipedia entry.

Aaron Broussard

The entry ends:

"..Mainstream media sources so far have not offered any explanation for the apparent discrepancy between reports that the nursing home's residents died on Monday, and Broussard's account of Rodrigue having phone conversations with his mother during the ensuing week..."

Once again the Net is ahead of MSM, particularly when they want to duck an issue.

I would ask God to consider his permanent home after this life.

He a Dim, so I'm pretty sure his reservations have already been made.

One thing I like about the Wikipedia entry on Aaron Broussard
is that if you type in "Aaron Broussard" on a Google search,
it is the third entry that comes up.
,p.
The Wikipedia people edit entries from time to time but, for the moment, the viewer will see the discrepancy noted.

>>Hmmmmm .. any comment from Timmy Russert and Chrissy Matthews on this yet??<<

Chrissy "squats to pee" Matthews will insist in some twisted rationale that the stress of the scope of the disaster and the accompanying lackluster Federal response drove Broussard to a breakdown, resulting in his lying out of frustration...

A.K.A. {let's all say it together, now...}:

"It's all Bush/Cheney and Rove's fault"

A.A.C.

Gee, a Democrat lied to score points on national TV? Go figure.

And the MSM hasn't revealed the lie? I'm speechless.

Me too. I sincerely hope his karmic retribution is swift and painful.

Her uncle, Eugene Broussard, 86, is glad she did not shy away from talking about Ben. He knew she had it in her to be a strong governor back during Ben’s funeral, when she bravely spoke before the congregation during her greatest hour of grief.

"People say she can’t handle tough situations as governor," Broussard said. "If she can handle that, talking about her son in church, she can handle anything."

Yes he is. I hope some TV media takes him on about this. So far World Net Daily, FR and the Blogosphere are about it.

The story might advance due to the charging of St. Rita's Nursing Home owners in the deaths of these people, including the lady Broussard was talking about. As of now the MSM that have mentioned Broussard with that story have not connected the dots to his fabrication.
