Blanco just wants money to induce "her people" back into the state. She has this nightmare that "her people" might find jobs in Texas, and like the idea of living above sea level, and never come back. Dangling free housing is one way to try to do it.
She wants them back into that hell hole?
You're right. Nice catch. It's those silent one's you have to watch.
My dear young man, there is nothing as important as bridal gowns, flatware and bridesmaids other than sorority Rush.
She said everybody got out that wanted to. Everybody had a car. A chicken in every pot.

She's admitting to mass homicide then.
If George Bush lets her decide ANYTHING about this money, he is a fool.
The only reason she wants HER "commission" to handle it "inside the state" is to cover up the corruption.
Tell me you are kidding.
So long as they can vote the democratic ticket.
She is also upset I do believe that she is losing federal dollers. She was rambling on the other day about the La kids getting schooled and not with vouchers, etc. I think the feds give money based on enrollment and more for special ed kids. NO public schools, everyone is special ed.
And she doesn't like losing medicaid dollars either.
Are you serious?
That is mad.
No worries. I've been chewed out by masters in real life. Nothing online compares.

Slidell during Hurricane Rita Saturday, Sept. 24, 2005. Slidell Police Department Detectives Richard Bowman and Reggie Relf make their way down North Palm Drive in Palm Lake subdivision looking for anyone who wanted to evacuate.
Well maybe I was a little Hasty.
Yes, ma'am, the school $$ goes with the child, just like the SS money goes with the person.
She said it right on Geraldo, which you just heard. I of course, found that remark, well let me put it this way, irritating. In fact it enraged me deja vu all over again just thinking about the cluster .... .
venal, self serving, short sighted.
If every poor evacuee went to another state and suddenly had a new life with good people, good schools, no drug gangs and sang songs all day,,,she would complain and want them back in the projects in NO where drug dealing occurs openly, people are killed, children can't read. She wants the dollers from the feds for these people and the votes.
She barely won the last election. Barely. And Landrieu was hoping for a veep spot on the gore ticket and didn't get it. Now she never will. So she twitches.
I missed some of Geraldo; are you saying that the governor of Louisiana said on national TV that everybody who wanted to leave New Orleans got out before Katrina hit?
[Blanco] She didn't want to ask the Feds in before the storm because she felt it would make her look bad. That screams "misplaced priorities".
She admitted forgetting important things like asking Bush for the military. So, what more important things was she thinking about instead?
She let thirty thousand people go hungry and thirsty because she decided they needed to go someplace else, and clearly that was more important to her than basic survival for them.
When the levees broke and the city was filling up with water, she asked us all to pray, because at that point she had no other ideas of what to do and just naturally assumed that nobody else did either.
Then when the storm was over, she still refused outside help because she thought she'd get blamed for the mess.
It's not about the storm, or anybody else, it's all about Kathleen.
So now we write her a check for a quarter trillion bucks?
