"Brownie....You're Doin' A Helluva Job"

[Redfish]

they bring up a damn Hurricane that happened 10 years ago as if it was some NATIONAL event. for why? I guess so they can Put down Bush and his cabinet again.
it would be funny if it wasn't so pathetic

anything to take the attention away from obama's failures and hillary's lies and corruption. Its what libs do, no one should be surprised.

Umm... It WAS a national event. We were, necessarily, glued to media for info for something like two weeks straight, where it was top story 24/7. The biggest natural disaster in the nation's history tends to have that effect.

And Saturday is the tenth anniversary, so, much as we'd like to forget, you're gonna hear about it this weekend -- which includes calling out the revisionist historians in East Jipip who don't know a hurricane from their own asshole holding court on "how it was".

Deal with it.

It should be discussed and relived. BUT, if we don't learn from it, we are doomed to have another one, if not in NOLA maybe in Miami, Tampa, Savannah, the outter banks, NJ, NY, or even cape cod.

I know it. but watching them get BENT over it all over again as if it happened yesterday. It's just damn weird. they hang onto hate forever it seems. can't be good for their heath. at least that's what I've always heard. sheesh

the one thing I learned out of it is: DON'T live in a State run by Democrats. or plan your route to the football stadiums because that's where you'll be headed

I don't regret my 12 years residence in NOLA but one thing that always exasperated me about the place was the attitude of, when something's obviously flawed and not working, the propenisty to throw up one's hands and go, "oh well -- that's New Orleans!" -- as if systems are beyond one's control. So yes, review and analysis, and reminders of what needed to be fixed and in some cases still does, these are very legtimate reasons to recollect and build on.

yes, the dem/libs have to continue the bush bashing because there is nothing good they can say about their kenyan messiah, the hildebeast, crazy uncle joe biden, or the socialist moron sanders.

What amuses me is that the dems actually have a good candidate but they are ignoring him. Jim Webb is a good guy with a record of success.

In other words you learned absolutely nothing while you plunged your head into the sand looking for political points you could score off the victims.

And for that -- FUCK you.

A lot is better today than pre-katrina. its a slow process but improvements are quite evident.

NOLA is a unique place. Nowhere else do you see all races, creeds, income levels, and ages together enjoying mardi gras, a saints game, jazz fest, or any of the other festivals. It is a true melting pot where the vast majority get along with those who are different from them. We also have the best restaurants of any city in the entire world, and I have visited many of them, none compares.

Oh I'm well aware of that, and it didn't start yesterday. But when another mole pops up I'll whack it.

Thank you.

You are completely correct sir. I still come down at least a couple of times a year to do some gigs, and I always look forward to it.

But I don't miss the weather.

Actually, this week has been amazing.... lower heat and humidity!!!!! IT's the humidity that kicks my ass.

It's amazing how once in a while the place just suddenly dries up. Unexplainable.

I grew up mostly in the North where we had real winters, so it was gut-splitting hilarious to watch New Orleanians come out in the morning in January with ski masks and gloves because the temperature had plummeted all the way down to 54 degrees...

Remember Katrina and George W. Bush's totally unbelievable mishandling of the massive destruction and death in Louisiana, and Mississippi? I Do!

It wasn't as bad and irresponsible as Iraq but it was in the game.

During Katrina, Bush used strategery by flying over the city rather than driving through it. "Ya see, that way the terrorists can't win by hating our freedom".

I'm sure Bush told Rumsfeld, Cheney, Wolfowitz, Rove, Satan that they all did a 'heckuva job' on Iraq.

He still does. Because fact isn't a necessary commodity in the conservative mind.

Bush was returning from a trip to the west coast and diverted to fly over NO. No President would have landed with no preparation by the Secret Service and a plan to meet with the appropriate state officials. They were all to busy trying to cover cover their ass for not being prepared for a cat 4 Hurricane when they had ample warning to evacuate.

there was no place to land..the airport wasn't magically immune from storm damage...

That he flew over isn't the problem really..the problem was the lack of response for days and days.

I saw Army helicopters rescuing people as soon as the wind died down enough for them to safely fly.

more likely coast guard, but your point is valid. By not landing Bush allowed the rescue people to do their jobs without the delays that his security detail would have caused. It was the right thing to do----give up a photo op and let the recovery proceed.

You talking about when Nagin went to prison for corruption over the way he handled the money?

No, he's talking about how Bush and the republicans criminally mishandled the response to a national emergency and 1500 people died.

Another moron that believes the feds should come in and do the states job.

That was a job too big for the state to handle.

Umm, the federal response did not require a personal appearance by Bush. Aid, food, and medical supplies would have sufficed. There was no excuse to take a week to get down there.
