I just went to Hard Rock Casino in Biloxi...it’s bouncing back..people shouldn’t pay much attention to the professional whiners in the chocolate city.
YES we are ,
So sick of the Katrina sob story specials on tv all the time.

It's alive and well.
Liberal politicians are dead set on convincing us all that this isn't the case however.
"Show me just what Mohammed brought that was new, and there you will find things only evil and inhuman, such as his command to spread by the sword the faith he preached." - Manuel II Palelologus
Considering all the talk about housing bailouts I am beginning to wonder. There is no doubt the federal government is way too big.
As Bill Clinton, X42, once said: "Let's move on."
Judging from Katrina ... I wonder what is going to happen when Al Qaeda sets off nukes in three or four cities.
The democrats are all whipped into looking and waiting for mother government to provide. The rest of us are the ones actually getting things done.
IMHO one has a responsibility to ones self, ones family and friends, their community and their nation...........
... Katrina revealed that there were very few responsible citizens in the NOLA region and many many more in the Mississippi regions hit as hard if not harder by the cane.
Perfect example of a welfare state IMHO.....aka baby bird feed me mindset.
Doom on those who take but never give. NOLA was infested with em.

Denver Post: This text is from a county emergency manager out in the central part of Colorado after todays snowstorm.
WEATHER BULLETIN
Up here, in the Northern Plains, we just recovered from a Historic event--- may I even say a "Weather Event" of "Biblical Proportions" with a historic blizzard of up to 44" inches of snow and winds to 90 MPH that broke trees in half, knocked down utility poles, stranded hundreds of motorists in lethal snow banks, closed ALL roads, isolated scores of communities and cut power to 10's of thousands.
FYI: George Bush did not come.
FEMA did nothing.
No one howled for the government.
No one blamed the government.
No one even uttered an expletive on TV.
Jesse Jackson or Al Sharpton did not visit.
Our Mayor did not blame Bush or anyone else.
Our Governor did not blame Bush or anyone else, either.
CNN, ABC, CBS, FOX or NBC did not visit - or report on this category 5 snowstorm. Nobody demanded $2,000 debit cards.
No one asked for a FEMA Trailer House.
No one looted.
Nobody - I mean Nobody demanded the government do something.
Nobody expected the government to do anything, either.
No Larry King, No Bill O'Rielly, No Oprah, No Chris Mathews and No Geraldo Rivera.
No Shaun Penn, No Barbara Striesand, No Hollywood types to be found.
Nope, we just melted the snow for water. Sent out caravans of SUV's to pluck people out of snow engulfed cars.
The truck drivers pulled people out of snow banks and didn't ask for a penny.
Local restaurants made food and the police and firemen delivered it to the snowbound families. Families took in the stranded people - total strangers.
We fired up wood stoves, broke out coal oil lanterns or Coleman lanterns.
We put on extra layers of clothes because up here it is "Work or Die".
We did not wait for some affirmative action government to get us out of a mess created by being immobilized by a welfare program that trades votes for 'sittin at home' checks. Even though a Category "5" blizzard of this scale has never fallen this early, we know it can happen and how to deal with it ourselves.
"In my many travels, I have noticed that once one gets north of about 48 degrees North Latitude, 90% of the world's social problems evaporate." It does seem that way, at least to me. I hope this gets passed on.
Maybe SOME people will get the message. The world does Not owe you a living.
...do the math - if a billion and a half dollars was given to NO - and the original city had 500,000 residents, how much would every man woman and child receive had the money been distributed equally?
No, we’re not a nation of Katrina whiners, but the RATS and their stooges in the MSM wish we were.
We have advanced technology and communication to the point people were told in advance what was going to happen to their communities and chose to ignore the highly accurate predictions.
The same disasters will happen again and they are still rebuilding below sea level and on beaches certain to be hit again by future hurricanes.
It's madness.
The whole thing has a Darwinian feel to it.
People too dumb to react to such obvious danger don't deserve to survive.
There is no constitutional right to be protected from death-defying risks you choose to take.
Easier way for the Big Easy--The grand total is $127 billion (including tax relief). That's right: a monstrous $127 billion. Of course, not a single media story has highlighted this gargantuan government-spending figure. But that number came straight from the White House... This is an outrage. The entire GDP of the state of Louisiana is only $141 billion...
2) In Mississippi, 26 miles of beach-front properties were completely destroyed... Everything is gone from the beach, North to the railroad tracks... wiped clean... only slabs and in some cases it took the slabs too... it took the trees... it took the streets... it pulled the water pipe system out of the ground... it took fire hydrants... it left nothing but debris and the stench of death... but Mississippi was cleaning up the same afternoon Katrina passed by. We are building back smarter and wiser... in most cases people are selling the beach-front property to commercial developers and building inland. Do we get mentioned in this article’s opening? No! As Rush says... “It does not further their story line”!
3) SCREW ALL OF THE MEDIA AND EVERY LAST EVILCRAT ALIVE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Tell them LLS says that, “They are lying sumbiches”!
LLS
i’m tired of katrina.
the media have been filling the pages of newspapers and tv sets with sob stories about the
democrap plantation of new orleans.
