Eco terror? Yeah, the thought’s occurred to me too.

Why would they act? It’s one of those crisis specials that Rahm was talking about.

It’s occurring to alot of people and several articles on it now on FR!

Thank you for the heads’ up, BLL. I’ve been hoping someone would write that.

To me, this ties neatly with Climategate.

OBAMA, THE ENVIOMENTALIST?

... yeah right.

Ditto that. There had to be an angle. For example, Soros is in the oil business now.

I’m also wondering if refineries will lose tanker supplies for a while? I can’t imagine oil tankers reaching refineries there right now. [Leftists already created a refinery bottleneck.]

He wasn’t in a classroom but last night he was as happy as a pig in Chicago while whining and dining at the White House Correspondence Dinner. I hope he enjoyed himself while folks on the Gulf Coast are uniting and working to correct this catastrophe without useless Government interference. At the dinner he probably joked to Michelle, “MMMMM... this seafood platter is delicious. Too bad those gun and bible toting rednecks in the South will be eating spaghetti O’s and spam from now till eternity.” HA HA HA! He’s just too funny.

Bush responded to Katrina within three days and was in contact with state and local officials. Katrina hit Mississippi and Alabama, New Orleans was on the edge of its path. In Mississippi and Alabama the response by state and local officials was quick and effective, though not perfect by any means.

In New Orleans and Louisiana the response was confused and incompetent. State and local officials made one error after another. Mayor Nagin of New Orleans was particularly incompetent.

The MSM blamed Bush for all the problems in New Orleans and repeated it over and over again. It has now become a standard talking point that Katrina was Bush's fault.
