President Barack Obama said Friday that residents of the US Gulf Coast still are trying to rebuild three years after Hurricane Katrina and have not received the support they deserve from Washington.
His words amounted to sharp, though indirect, criticism of former President George W. Bush's oversight of the Katrina recovery efforts. Katrina was blamed for more than 1,600 deaths and $41 billion in property damage.

Oddly enough not one penny of the stimulus package goes to the Katrina rebuilding efforts.
Had em across the street from me. The local shopping center became deluged with people trying to sell those vouchers for cigarettes. Graffiti went from little if any to huge multi colored words that can’t be repeated here.
You’re looking for the term “FUBO”
The reason N.O. didn’t get enough help is because local Democratic government robbed them blind!!!! There was a ton of money stolen by Dem political system in that area. Corrupt to the core.
I see this as an area of attack in the next election/fight. Inner city Democrats need to be educated about the enslavement of whole communities. I hear more and more minorities speaking up!! Time to fan those flames...
How come the only place we ever hear about is New Orleans, what about yhe rest of the Gulf States, they suffered a direct hit.
Getcher T-shirts right here.
Wish I'd thought of it.
I liked Gulf Port Miss.
Meanwhile, there are still people in Western Kentucky and Eastern Missouri that haven’t had their power restored from an ice storm some 3 weeks or so ago. But they’re white gun-clingers so they don’t matter to the racist in the white house.

Exactly!!!! I live in MS and Haley Barbour handled our crisis on the coast like a true champion. The difference is one is a Republican and largely Republican gov’t and the other is Democrat.
How much help did the Ice Storm 2009 survivors get Obama?
Did you even mention them? Anywhere? Anytime?
FUBO!
I love how Bush was “flying over a flooded area”.
As if he was supposed to land in the water for God sake.
Obama was up the road from the Ice storm area and didn’t even bother to ride by.
This man is seriously mentally ill and his supporters are just as deranged for not understanding how stupid this is.
This turd has been in office for a month and I am sick of his socialist crap as are MOST Americans IMO. Even the stupid ones that voted for him.
Send more cash cards, those really worked the first time.
Can somebody post that picture of Lootie wading off with the crate full of Heineken? Lootie needs another beer bailout.
How much of this stimulus package was given to them?
OMG! We are still paying for their free rent here in Houston 3-1/2 years after the fact! Crime rate rose 25% and official police reports in 2006 and 2007 stated one in every four murders was committed by a Katrina transplant. We inherited over 5000 pedophiles. The jails were emptied and sent here.
I still see them lined up at the Texas Rehabilitative Services collecting their checks and walking across to the Walmart. Then I stand in line with them watching them buy things I can’t afford.
Give me an ever lovin’ break!!! BARF!!!! We are doomed.
You and the Democrats are now at the wheel, jackass!
BINGO, we have a winner.
