That link is an interesting read; thanks for posting it.
Within hours of the hurricane and flooding, MoveOn.org had posted billboards around the area. Disgusting.
Senator Lindsey Graham is talking on FNC and answering questions about poverty and race. How I wish he would mention that Louisiana has been under Democratic rule for over 40 years.
Democrats constantly tell us that if they weren't impeded by Republicans, they could solve poverty. Louisiana is Exhibit 1 that proves the Democrats can't solve anything.
I wish Lindsey had further mentioned that it is an African American who didn't use buses to evacuate a largely minority population who didn't have resources and were most vulnerable to dying.
Don't forget the 1996 article where the Dems in LA got out the BUSES --

Excerpt from the aricle:
We found it, though, in the New Orleans Times Picayune of November 9th, 1996, and basically what happened there was that Mary Landrieu was trailing badly in her race with Woody Jenkins for the Senate, and they found out that the inner city of New Orleans had not voted something to the tune of 186,000 people. They pulled out all the stops. Clinton was making phone calls. Clinton, Landrieu, and Harry Connick, Sr., put this whole thing together. The work to get African-American voters to the polls started at the True Gospel of Jesus Christ church on North Broad Street before the polling places opened. A thousand workers would hit the streets that day, 500 in the morning, and 500 that afternoon. And they went all through town. They put together parades with New Orleans music to go through the housing projects. They gave away red beans and rice... and they found busses. They found countless buses to get people to the polls. Now, the only reason I bring this up is to, once again, confirm that when they really want to move people, they can do it in New Orleans. When they really want to move them, they can do it.
A very good point that is going to need to be repeated endlessly. If Democrats have all the answers, why after 60 years of Democrat Rule is Louisiana and New Orleans such a mess? Thanks for the new tagline!
