I can’t help it that the liberal media only focuses on lower-income blacks as victims of Katrina. FYI, 10’s of thousands of hard-working middle and upper-class white people’s homes were also destroyed in New Orleans.

Those most likely to suffer first from this oil spill live outside N.O. near the mouth of the river. They are mostly white fishermen who have been providing 1/2 the nation’s seafood for many generations. They are not and never have been, from the “hood”.

Sorry about your job, but you’re not the only one. Why do you suppose I now have the time to play on the computer?

You're right. I was being a jerk and you called me on it. There are tons of good people in NO, and I've met quite a few along the gulf coast. Can't wait to get back to the Mobile Bay area and enjoy the seafood. Though it may be a while after this disaster.

...cringe... I never said anything about blacks and whites, and none of my comments involved race. By hoods, I meant thugs, looters, deadbeats, etc...of which, there were plenty of whites included in the whole Katrina mess. And yes, I know the bad ones are out-numbered by the good guys. I just need to look harder and quit being so negative.

I'm sorry to hear about your job too. I hope you find the job of your dreams, and soon. Take care.
