Our FR Hurricane Katrina Live threads generated more than 1 Million hits. A trip down memory lane. Never forget the wasted resources of NOLA Mayor Nagin's Navy...or Sean Penn bailing water out of his photo op boat:

Looking back to a monumental time in FR history. May we never see another storm like Hurricane Katrina.

George Bush hates black people.

Some context with your little photo would be helpful.

Context for my picture:

That is Mike Meyers and Kanye West making a brief public service announcement in support of the victims of Katrina. Out of the blue, Kanye blurted: “George Bush hates black people.” Which caught Myers by surprise, as can be seen in the photo. Which is why Hyman Roth made the quote above.

Didn’t we get the black guy with the long strait hair walking in the water with the case of beer?

May we never see another Republican President like Bush who said nothing when being blamed for everything in the aftermath by both the Rats and the MSM.

“Bodies stacked up like cordwood in the Super Dome!” They may have to tear the stadium down. They’ll never be able to use it again.

Brian Williams saw bodies floating in front of his hotel.

Great job media.

I got a metal roof after Hurricane Milton. I have done massive truss reinforcements in my attic, though I am not done yet. My two story house has solid concrete walls poured on a form, for both floors...all the way to the rafters. I still have two tall trees that could fall and brush the house.

I am getting there for preparation.

As reported in the Huffington Post.

“It is reported that black hurricane victims in New Orleans have begun eating corpses to survive. Four days after the storm, thousands of blacks in New Orleans are dying like dogs. No-one has come to help them.”

to this day, they still blame Bush, even though it was the air head governors fault and the moron mayor too for the bad response. Even still, you gotta be pretty stupid to die in a hurricane. Youve got plenty of advanced warning. Tornadoes, not so much...earthquakes, ZERO warning. But a hurricane?...no excuse.
