Fed Government: "Louisiana, give us your emergency preparedness documents."
Louisiana: "We need more than 3 weeks to get them together."
A reasonable person would assume that these documents would be in a bright yellow binder and distributed to every state employee that would be involved in an energency/disaster
forgot about that line. Of course now they have layoff many of those employees. Maybe she'll claim the plans were destroyed during the flood. She took them to NO to go over with Nagin and they are now being used to plug the holes in those levies.
There, now it's truthful.
Since I do business in a state with over 40 years of Democratic rule, I can appreciate the "pay to play" culture in LA. Most business would be party to the political corruption culture in LA. They could not sue without suffering consequences.
Not 3 weeks ... 90 days ... 3 months!
Incredulity has not yet yielded to derision ...
Are you saying the majority of LA is corrupt? I can see NO from what we have heard since the hurricanes. We should talk, California is run by the DEMS, illegals and ACLU. Bet if we had a major quake we'd really see all the corruption. The few good politicans can't make dent in the holes we have dug ourselves into.
We have Dems responsible for the nation's first "gas cap" law, proclaimed as the "crown jewel" of Democratic legislation a few years ago. Since the law was enacted this year, we NOW pay more for gasoline than any other state. The Dims say, "we need to give it a chance" while tax revenues from gasoline and General Excise taxes dramatically fill government coffers. All the while, Dims yell,"the oil companies are making too much money". The majority of the people in my state have found a way to vote themselves into my wallet!
