All of the good people have left. Are you sure about that? You are without a doubt one of the most uninformed posters I have ever seen on free republic. I gave you a chance to think about what you said and you just expanded on it.
Just exactly what is it you expect people to do? NO has been handed billions of dollars yet they want more and probably more after that. FEMA is not in the nursemaid business. Citizens are expected to take some responsibility for themselves and at least show some effort, something which is obviously lacking in NO. Can't you understand after 6 months and all we've seen is outstretched hands for more free gimmee's so the rest of the nation is now sick of the sound of NO. The people in the other States, Florida, Mississippi,Alabama and Texas have managed to help themselves and start rebuilding their lives, why can't the people of NO do the same, or is everyone in that State incompetent? I'm very aware how callous this sounds but d**n it, enough is enough. Katrina wasn't GWB's fault and it's not the rest of the nation's fault. If you want to lay blame, put it where it belongs.....on the shoulders of the crooked State officials of LA.
