9 P.M. EDT.
I was just able to get online, but I've been watching this speech from the beginning.
I think it's fantastic. First of all, the setting is not only gorgeous, it's reassuring. I was heartbroken at the thought (as I first did) that the beauty and history of New Orleans was gone. Clearly, it's not, and this speech demonstrates it.
Second, GW is speaking to the people directly hurt--giving out phone numbers to connect family members, etc.
Now he's talking about rebuilding and poverty... I can't post fast enough to write my reactions to all of this. :)
"More families should own, not rent".. yes!
Okay, I'm rambling, but bravo, so far, President Bush!
So what's stopping you. Get lost.
Good one!
LOL!
the "24 billion" number thrown about
Hmmmmmm...no mention of the WELFARE STATE THAT PROLONGED THEIR "SUFFERING"?
The dems created this problem.
You came on this thread and were exceedingly rude and arrogant.
Now, either get on topic, or leave this thread.
President Bush is giving a great speech And he isn't bending over for the lefties either! He is actually zotting the damned Dems...in a nice way. :-)
so when did W become a believer in affirmative action? im sure glad i voted R in 2004!
The lights
No, he said, "rebuild HIGHER and BETTER."
we'll not just rebuild, we will rebuild HIGHER.
There you go: Gulf Opportunity Zone.
Now what was next on your list?
Very good end run around the Rats on the racial issues. Talking about the legacy of poverty to the blacks, that when rebuilt the old way is done..minority businesses, ownership of homes...GULF OPPORTUNITY ZONE!!!
Creation of a Gulf Opportunity Zone. Provide immediate incentive for jobs, tax relief for small businesses, loans and loan guarantees for small businesses.
Some of us really don't understand what is happening... They think they are watching What Not To Wear...
Enough.
LOL!
No, I won't vote Democrat next time, but unless some Republicans show some restraint, I won't vote for them either. FE
OMG...his head is too big?
He is a good compassionate man who is probably a better Christian than most of us.....Thanks be to God he is our President!
"We'll build higher and better."
Opportunity Zones in the Gulf Coast!
Small business will lead the economic revival!
