After days of blaming the federal officials for not responding quickly enough to the Hurricane Katrina crisis, New Orleans Mayor Ray Nagin praised President Bush on Monday - and charged that Louisiana Gov. Kathleen Blanco had delayed federal rescue efforts by 24-hours.

YOWZA!!!

"She seems to have been completely useless."

I have posted about Katrina and went thru the storm in Metairie. I am too tired to write much tonight, but I want everyone to know that Blanco is an absolute idiot! The real power behind her is her corrupt ultra liberal husband. I have people that know a lot about her family and let me say, it is nothing good. Her husband is extremely corrupt. It is a sin she was elected. I have seen much Nagin bashing and some warranted. However, he came from a business background and was trying to rid the city of corrosive political patronage. He isn't the fool people make him out to be. I will reiterate that Blanco is a hack and her husband will try is best to "profit" from this disaster. I will make it a point to speak to those who know her family and get back to you. However, understand we are in great distress over this storm. Our lives have been thrown into incredible disarray.

"The governor said she needed 24 hours to make a decision."

The LA governorette has been the MAJOR roadblock to relief efforts.

Look for the media to finally start pointing this fact out.

"I wonder if Blanco was receiving orders on what to do from the DNC?"

see my post 83. Take it from me, all her directions is from one person -- her ultra liberal, utra corrupt husband. I know people that know her family. Trust me, her husband is as crooked as the clintons. He is likely scheming as we speak to profit from this disaster.

Perhaps this will serve as some sort of wake-up call for folks to abandon support for corrupt 'Rats like this and void of character. Look what happens when idiots rule.

I'd really like someone to tell me one productive thing that the Governor of Louisiana did before, during or after this whole catastrophe. She seems to have been completely useless.

She cried on TV. She felt her pain.

" This was all to make W look like an ineffective...leader...they're trying to make the GOP look like chit...and get their power back... " .............
And hopefully, as more new revelations and the truth comes out ( can't expect the MSM to let the truth be known ) this will backfire on them ( the Liberals/Democrats ) big time.

My parents lost everything from hurricane Agnes when I was little. They had no choice but to roll up their sleeves and start again. That's all you can do. Keep a positive attitude to protect your health, and you'll make it through this. Many have before you. Keep the faith. You WILL get through this.

"The Louisiana politicans are hearing this and are now talking about bringing them back to Louisiana and housing them in a military base."

Yeah, notice that Louisiana is talking about bringing them back as if they are property? Jesse Jackson was making that point for the dems that these people only know Louisiana and should be put right back, like they're zoo animals or something. Wanting to put them in tent cities. Dilapidated public housing, tent cities, it doesn't matter so long as they are kept in control by leftist ideology. How much do you want to bet that they approach these people with the angle that they HAVE to return to NO?

They are afraid these people will want a better life.I hope they find it in Texas, or in any other place. God Bless Texas!

They will say that the C.I.A already got to him ( Nagin ) and gave him some kind of mind altering drugs to change his stance and rhetoric on the blame game.

That will be my new tagline. While Blanco blinked, people blinked out.

"She was on Larry King for an hour or so. She demanded apologies. She blubbered some more. That's a lot of work."

I'll bet that the "NOW" gang will be very proud of her performance.

They can justify anything!
