Okay..no one else reported on it...so I guess I was the only one to watch Mary Landrieu with George Stephy this morning...

Blech---They were walking down a street in New Orleans...and she was explaining why they have been so "let down" by the federal government.

Although she had to acknowledge that a LOT of money had been "given" to Louisiana..(due to her begging and crying)...she complained that it didn't come to the locals directly....LOL (There are times that the Feds do somethings right, IMHO, and NOT sending big money directly to the corrupt leadership in Louisiana is one of those times)...

George pointed out that the Mississippi government haven't been complaining..and they are moving right along..

She said that they were no where close to being as damaged as New Orleans.


One thing here...neither SHE nor Nagin would admit that it probably is NOT a good idea for New Orleans to rebuild in certain areas of their city....

Landrieu is still upset that the Army Corps of Engineers still haven't built the levees to CAT 5 capabilites..darn them!

Well...ya'll get the drift, I am sure....enough is enough.

Thanks for the report on Stephie and Landrieu.

How did Brit and Juan do today on Fox?

Well, probably not a good idea to re-build certain 'parts' of N.O., but Houston would sure like to get shut of a lot of the refugees who are making their crime and murder rate soar and won't leave.

#195, Landrieu is still upset that her brother lost to School Bus Nagin which means a lot of White Folks voted for SBN because they know what he did or did not do before the Storm as far as corruption in NOLA. They knew he was fighting the LA corruption himself,and lest we forget Landrieu's Brother was the Lt Governor and did diddley squat. Landrieu is not believable,but then neither is George Steponallofus. I thought Bob Shieffer had a good interview with Haley Barbour,Haley always knows how to handle the DBM types. The FEma guy was very credible also and was allowed to get some good points across. He is not really much of a Bureaucrat because of his background,but he knows how to work it like most Fire Chiefs learn to do out of necessity.

Oh, BS!!!!! Mississippi was where the bulk of the storm went thru. Whole communities were wiped out down to the foundations. NOLA was a flood; that's were the damage came in. A flood is bad and ruins one's home, but it is NOT the same thing as having not a stick, nor a blade of grass, and only concrete foundations and sand where you and your neighbors houses and businesses once sat.

No one came by to clean up and rebuild for the Mississippians, they did it themselves. NOLA'ers expect the government to come clean up the rubish from their yards, let alone start rebuilding their homes. The difference was (and IS) night and day.
