Louisiana Flood Victims: Why Is Obama Ignoring Us?
Townhall.com ^ | August 20, 2016 | Todd Starnes

In 2005 President Bush was rebuked by Democrats for his handling of Hurricane Katrina.

President Obama scored some cheap political points -- blasting President Bush for his flyover of the devastation in New Orleans.

Well, at least President Bush paid a visit.

That's a lot more than what President Obama has done for the people of Baton Rouge and other parts of southeastern Louisiana.

Some 40,000 homes are under water - a countless number left homeless - many without flood insurance.

And even though the waters have begun to recede, President Obama has not set foot in the Bayou State.

And he thinks Louisiana is a dem state and Hilly should assume the role of cater in chief.

To me Trump is showing he cares regardless of red or blue.

The entire Bush family should come out with both guns blazing and shout out the hypocrisy of both big media and obama.

That was one of W's big failings. He never defended himself. I guess he saw it as "reaching across the aisle", but in reality he just let the MSM and the dems walk all over him.

C. Obama doesn’t want to miss the US Basketball “Dream Team” win the Gold Medal game in Rio.

I can GUARANTEE you Obama will be sitting around with all his buds on Martha’s Vineyard - why do you think they’re all there with him now? - on Sunday afternoon, glued to the TV with beers in hand.

THAT’S why Obama can’t leave now. He’s been planning this perfect weekend for months, if not years. Mere natural disasters will have to wait!

“The first step in putting the media in their place is to publicly point out what irresponsible hypocrites they are.”

Are you kidding? The media thrives on their hypocrisy; they wear it as a badge of distinction.

Not enough of a Chocolate City, sorry.
Now if somebody told Obama the involved population was 50% LGBT or black Muslims, then his Dumbo ears would perk up.

Because you’re white, and I don’t care, and Bush got all the blame for Katrina, and the media is letting me get away with this.

“Will the media outlets ever be held responsible for their double-standard propaganda tactics?”

The left wing, state run media IS on it’s last leg. The only ones watching them are the drones that mindlessly follow liberals no matter what they do or how bad they are. The media is a joke and most everyone knows it. I don’t watch or listen to any of it. As soon as the news comes on in the car it gets switched.
