Administrative Moderator, I asked Howlin to please not post to me again, beginning "NOW," in my last post to her. She continues to bizarrely clearly pursue me. Please rectify this situation that is clearly out of bounds in known site rules and manners. Thank you in advance.
Coming from the land of the truly random driveby, Los Angeles, I can't tell you how much I appreciate the fact that they're reasonably good shots. In Los Angeles, drivebys usually take out everyone *but* the people they were shooting at.
Which is not to say that the Viet and Hispanic gangs in Houston wouldn't take out the amateurs from NO on general principles - they'd just be neater about it than you implied. :)
And I honestly couldn't care less if they are messy or neat, as long as it's done,,,,
I've got one for em,,,,,they should drop them off at Dobie High school here in the southeast,,,cause those gangs don't take any prisoners,,,,
I believe that's why JESSE is fighting so hard to get people BACK in New Orleans!!
I also think the dems think like many of us here do that getting these people out of NO an into the real world will help their self esteem and they will see that hard work and ambition are very rewarding, both mentally and financially...they could become conservative converts. they should be able to clearly see how the dims have been talking out of both sides of their mouth and when push came to shove the dems were AWOL.
I wish them all the success in the world. I'd much rather see American citizens taking jobs and assistance than those from other countries that broke our laws to get and work here.
Now lets see if President Bush does something to stop the flow of illegals to help these people get jobs at good wages instead of competing with illegals. Americans first. Remove a few million illegals and the housing shortage will be solved...

Amen. You're my kinda gal/guy whatever,,, ;)
What's the chance that Nagin wanted to evac people on the buses, but Blanco refused to shelter any of the people outside the New Orleans area? Nagin has consistently claimed that "there were too many frickin' cheifs" and that he needed more authority. I'm not saying that Nagin is innocent, but we don't know what sort of pressures the Louisiana political machine put on him- especially since we know he was already feuding with Baton Rouge.
And if a significant portion of these people *do* make it good out from under the "protective" wings of the Dems, and this gets publicized - the Dems are completely finished and their entire agenda gets rolled up and ashbinned as far as the black community is concerned.

well, let's just see,,,,all the screaming and yelling this far hasn't done any good,,,one of my only complaints w/Bush,,,,, allowing the illegals,,,,I mean how much stupid could one person have to even allow that????
And without the black community you are right,,,the dems are finished,,,,
Then he should have used the media spotlight he was in and publicized the whole thing. He would have been a hero instead of being an accomplice in the attempted negligent homicide of 250,000 people.
You do *not* put political games ahead of the lives of 250,000 of your fellow citizens. That's monstrous. We hung people after WW2 for almost the same exact reason.
I'm sorry. I've been reading through this thread and finally caught up with your post. Here you go.

This is an excellent opportunity for someone to ask him about illegals and jobs and housing for those displaced by Katrina..what can he say? I look at it as an opportunity to put more pressure on him until he does the right thing...
well, if there were "too many frickin" chiefs then why was he beggin some of those chiefs for help last week when he was on his cussing rampage???
I'm just being a smart alec,,,you do have a good point....
I dunno, a report I read that the city mayor of NOLA said "everyone is on their own" when a hurricane above CAT 3 is barrelling in toward NOLA. Pundits, experts, and the National Geographic Magazine all said NOLA, from the levee's to the Democrat mayor were ill-prepared for a hurricane higher than CAT 3 as it is.
Who will that someone be?? Does anyone here have any connections????
And it plainly states in LA's emergency plan that the levees in NO could very well fail in a CAT 3 or higher,,
Good grief. That sounds like something I'd hear from my seven year olds. I'm tempted to get up and make sure they are still in bed.
Howlin is correct and you're not looking too good. There have been several threads posted to FR about several years old NO escape plans, should a disaster strike. THE BUSES ARE IN THE PLANS!
Now, if I, who am on vacation and not on line all that much have seen and read this here, what's your excuse?
Have some crow...it's cold, but that shouldn't bother you. :-)
There was a National Geographic Channel special in 2002, complete with computer predictions and computer animation, and it showed the levees bursting exactly as how they did in the aftermath of Katrina. It was stunning at how accurate it was.
