MOVE THE CITY TO HIGHER GROUND!
The Feds had better not let one dime of the money go to the local political establishment. That's that most crooked bunch of polititians that I have ever personally witnessed.
Shouldn't they find out how many people are going back before we go to this expense?
You know, it's unacceptable to me that republican "statesmanship" includes letting scumbags like Blanco get away with murder. She and Mike McCurry should be denounced as murderers on every news show, and it will never happen. But the blood is still on their hands.
Sorry, but I'm afraid it's already done. As long as Bush is passing out the candy I doubt there will be any control over who gets to spend the money.
"Shouldn't they find out how many people are going back before we go to this expense?" I'm so embarassed to live here sometimes.
No, No, No... Mary Landrieu just wants them to send the money and stay out of it.
What the hey - it's ONLY TAXPAYERS' HARD EARNED MONEY being thrown down the rathole!!!
Easy come, easy go...
"Shouldn't they find out how many people are going back before we go to this expense?"
NO, we shouldn't be spending another dime on the levees!
We should be moving the friggin' city to higher ground!
and while I'm here, isn't it laughable that Nagin wants folks to move back to N'awlins while he's moved his family to DALLAS!
Mary need the levees fixed so that the democrat voting poor folk will come back and re-elect her worthless a$$. As it stands, the only people left are self-sufficient right wingers with lots of guns.
Three terrorists in scuba dropped off an incoming ship could blow holes and flood the entire city again. This time it could be at night when everyone was asleep and drown thousands.
Billions for corrupt LA democrats to recreate their vote-rich underwater ghetto.
The levees will never sustain a CAT 5 hurricane. You cannot place a levy on SAND...
If anyone wants to rebuild, o.k. But be warned, I will not pay for more stupidity.
Two billion for new levees is an urgent expense. Eight billion for fence on Southern border is an unacceptably high expenditure. Am I missing something?
BUT...let the Dutch come in and supervise.
Who do you think is going to rebuild the levees, Americans? :)
"Save Our Wetlands" will surely find a liberal federal judge to halt all operations!
W has been passing out the candy for years. He makes LBJ look like a conservative.
We didn't have a whole lot of options, as I recall. Personally, I can stomach the spending as long as he keeps killing jihadi's, signing pro-gun legislation, and keeps putting up Alitos and Roberts' type judges.
Isn't Newt the only one in the heat for next round that will actually curtail a little spending?
It is rediculous to rebuild a city that has been destroyed because it is below sea level. There will be another hurricane. There will be another breach. If you want to rebuild NO, blow the levee and then build along the new shore line. This whole thing smells like a bunch of greedy developers using Government money to finance their next big project.
