Nagin's incompetence? Nah, couldn't be! He's...well, you know!
None of this matters to the liberals. It’s still all the fault of George W. Bush.
I am still shocked and dismayed, 10 years out, at how the liberals took a terrible national natural disaster, and politicized it. And succeeded in politicizing a hurricane.
Bush’s fault. And don’t forget Rove’s weather machine.
What nobody talks about is the black underclass mentality. We don’t need to go nowhere! The gubmint is gonna come and help.
That’s exactly how they thought prior to the storm hitting.

We should put the Army Corps of Engineers out of business. They are simply a militarized version of the envirowhackos who use their power to assault the citizenry.
Back in 2005, Al Sharpton said the Army Corps of Engineers used a new military type of “Silent Dynamite” to blow the levies, and thus flood the black areas. I guess that was proof enough for some! LOL.
And they had no NEO plan, none of the required actions of a proper NEO plan were taken, no NEO actions were taken when Katrina hit, no good sense NEO actions were Enforced. Whoes responsibility was it to do all this? State Gov., Cty Cmn, & the Mayer.
Corruption and siphoning funds from useful projects to useless feel goodies, and Ray Nagin.
There is no doubt in my mind that Katrina saved tens (perhaps hundreds) of thousands of lives. The shoddy levy system was all about collapse and what Katrina did was make sure that most of the city was evacuated when it did.
The Corps designed and built the levees that failed. Their designs were flawed and the construction did not meet standards.
There is no one else to blame.
The state pissed away the funds allocated for barrier construction. This is not news.
Odd. The part of the levy that was built and maintained by the Corps held up fine. The parts built by local Dim politicians’ brother in laws and other cronies could never have held up. I am not a big fan of some of what the ACoE does, but the levy failures was much more about bribes and skimming off funding than that.
I’m still wondering who was dumb enough to build a city below sea level.
I blame mother nature and mans impotency to truly win against her
It's carl Roves' .. or was it Dubbya's ? .... secret hurricane, weather machine ....
EVERYBODY knows that.
The most important lesson to be learned from Katrina has been totally ignored:
Don’t buy, build or rebuild a home, a business or a city on land that is below sea level.
I lay the fault at the feet of the politicians that handled the money set aside yearly for the maintenance and improvement of the levies all over New Orleans. There is more than enough literature and paper trail proving that the politicians (Democrat and Black) skimmed the money allocated for the levies for over forty years.
incredibly nobody there though of putting flood gates in the canals to prevent water from being forced back up canal
during storm
It’s a democrat city - at the bottom of all of it will be corruption, payoffs and kickbacks.
