Has anyone seen the irony yet? Planes, ships, provisions sent to Georgia
within 2 days, yet it took several days (weeks) for the US Govt. to respond to Louisiana post Katrina?

1. I now believe this govt. declared war on Americans in 2000.
and we have no defenders in positions of power.

3. The oil in New Orleans was already secure
so there was no need for the Bushy admin to run and aid the victims of Katrina.

4. Blacks in New Orleans don't vote Republican
so why make an effort???

By the way I wouldn't be surprised if some voting machines are on the C-130s and suddenly votes just materialize out of nowhere.

Oh and BTW-I already saw a headline asking if US INTELLIGENCE was the one wrong in this situation.

7. You won't see the irony, but rather the similarity
when we find out that none of this shit actually got to the people who need over there, either.

everything

12. guess I'd rather see it as "Evidence" of the
truth of what Kanye West said about George Bush- and the real 'priorities' this administration have.

'America' needs to take a long, hard look at what's been goin on. And quit the enabling and denial.

But we already know that.

That 'ad' idea sounds great.


:hi:

13. I guess the govt of Georgia asked for help the "RIGHT WAY"!!!!!!
Remember all the crap about how the governor of LA did not ask for help...or at least not thru the proper channels??

All of the above points are valid. BushCo did not give a rat's ass about the people of New Orleans.

17. The people in Georgia gave * a warm welcome.
* knew he was hated in NOLA. I' sure there will be plenty of grateful Georgians in McCain's "I'm really just like W" ads.
