Is anybody surprised?
Must have missed her space on Sean Penn's boat.
Maybe it will take this great tragedy for people to realize once and for all that those who cry racism loudest are the biggest racists. But I won't hold my breath.
Without Racial unrest, she and Jesse Jackson and Al Sharpton have no careers. They have to create it were it does not exist.
Race pimps everywhere you look these days.
This idiot never fails to perform true to type. One of Compton's finest.
She is the example of "no class".
Maxine Waters is a total idiot and anything that spews from her mouth is idiocy.
Why do we even post this nonsense?
Not a damn thing other than posing and causing trouble, IMO.
Let's hope she stood the whole trip.
Yep,I saw white people rescuing black people.Class division and racism at it finest.I even saw rescuers asking for peoples Gold Cards to insure that no underclass citizens got on board first.(extreme sarcasm)
Where was SHE until now? The president has already visited the region.
Did she wait until HER vacation was over?
I HATE these liberal mouths.
I'm in the mean SOB mode about this.
It's time to throw the racism charges right back at the Democrats. Who was the primary delay in the evacuation, and getting aid to NOLA? The Democrat governor (white) of Louisiana. The Democrat governor (white) of Louisiana ignored the President regarding mandatory evacuation, and refused the suggestion of putting the NG under Federal control, instead having a Clintonista run the "effort". And why? Because of political pettiness, don't want to be seen taking a recommendation from a Republican! Yeppers, petty image concerns are more important than getting the hard work done (got to put a /sarcasm after that sentence).
BTW, I'm white (polish-scots-irish).
Do the people of Louisiana now wish they should have voted for Bobby Jindal?
There were not just "200 buses". There were 200 buses in just one photo and Freepers studying the post-Katrina satellite images have counted over 400 buses altogether at other city parking.
At 70 people per bus that is 28,000 people per round trip that could have been taken out of the storm surge area in the 48 hours prior the Katrina striking.
After the storm hit, what makes you think that buses sent from outside of New Orleans could drive through the flooded mess any better than the 145 New Orleans city buses that were parked 1.2 miles away from the Superdome?
Was Scotty supposed to beam the outside buses to the Superdome and them beam them back out so that they would not have to drive through impassable roads?
The time to evacuate those 200,000 low-income people on public buses OUT OF THE STORM SURGE ZONE was BEFORE the Category 4 storm struck.
That was what the Southern Louisiana Evacuation Plan for New Orleans specifically called for.
The Democrat Governor and the Democrat Mayor did NOTHING to carry out that portion of the plan. They left 200,000 low-income resident abandoned and they now blame the Federal Government for not having Scotty beam down a massive logistics effort after a human disaster of their own making.
Letter to Maxine Waters from Larry Elder, L.A. talk show host www.larryelder.com ^ | 10/23/01 | Larry Elder
In 1979, former Black Panther, Joanne Chesimard, gunned down a New Jersey State Highway Patrol Officer. A jury convicted her of murder, and sentenced her to life in prison. In a daring breakout, Chesimard escaped from prison and fled to Cuba. Congress passed a unanimous resolution urging Castro to send Chesimard back to America and face charges. You, however, wrote Castro a letter, urging him to let her stay, stating "she was persecuted as a result of her political beliefs and affiliations." You further likened her to Martin Luther King!

Hand the ditz a mop and have her clean the bathrooms in the Superdome.
