The worst tragedy for America in the 21st Century isn't Iraq!

[KoKo]

It's what happened in New Orleans!

That a President and a Congress of the US favored Iraqi's over our OWN AMERICAN PEOPLE...and TIME AFTER TIME...they've done this to us SINCE the COLD WARRIERS have BEEN IN POWER since WWII. Like VAMPIRES...these "Old Coots/Power Mongers" never die...they just live on...bloated like Kissinger and Cheney, Sharon and the rest who somehow DEFY US with their lifestyles of "Eating Beef/Enjoying the Good Life" while the rest of us send our kids off, go on Cholesterol lowering drugs, live with Diabetes and other ills...and THEY LIVE FOREVER...DOING THEIR EVIL DOER's juggling of world maps in Grand Machiavellian Style.

They live off our Blood. They live off our Children...They live off US!

When does it end? :shrug:

[opihimoimoi]

1. It ENDS when we say NO MAS.... NO MORE, and we do something

about this schmidt.

[aquart]

2. Whole lotta people haven't figured that out, yet.

We lost a fucking city.

[KoKo]

6. Yes....a City that's what America was all about...before this new crew

came into power. As the Chimp said to whore Bob Woodward in his last book when asked: How do you think History will remember you? ...and THE CHIMP Replies: "Who cares about that...we'll all be dead." (paraphrase close to the original)

Who cares about America...We will ALL BE DEAD! What kind of fucking President says stuff like that? :shrug: While Cheney hunts pheasants and Bush flies all over with Laura...American's are dying in places the Chimp got us into and at home we lost one of America's Greatist Cities.

Who Cares? The Media does a little stuff on "rebuilding New Orleans" but their heart isn't in it. They'd rather talk about missing Blond Children, Blonde Sex Offenders and whatever "Gulf Stream CEO Private Jet" can't land today. Or maybe BIRD FLU....BIRD FLU.....BIRD FLU...PANDEMIC....PANDEMIC....PANDIMIC.

New Orleans is really dead on the radar while thousands suffer...they do a 30 second...maybe a three minute..and then it's gone. :-(

History and Heritage just aren't the Chimp/Cheney's thing. It would be explained that they are from "Western States." They just don't get off on "Eastern" Values Systems. New Orleans is OLD TO THEM...TEAR IT DOWN! BUILD NEW! It's the REPUG WAY!

7. A president who is unable to love his children. That's who.

[uppityperson]

10. AND Mississipi lost a whole lot of their fucking coast.

And the Houma Nation lost a whole lot of their territory and people south of NO. And the administration just doesn't care.

[Digit]

3. I am watching Frontline on PBS in the east (at least here)

Covering Katrina and the (cough) response.

I am crying watching this all over again.

[kittykitty]

11. And they are really dissing the whole gov't, FEMA,, Homeland S,ecurity

Everyone failed to be prepared and do their jobs.

[lonestarnot]

4. Silent revolt coming to a neighborhood near you.

[uppityperson]

13. my thought too.

I've been watching and wondering when the revolution will come and think the administrations reaction (ha) to Katrina really pushed it forward. People will not revolt until enough of them are sufficiently uncomfortable and this is making it happen. Some people think "Iraq? so what, I'm comfortable and it doesn't affect me". Katrina has and will. Notice how much more food costs? transport costs. Notice how GM laid off 1/3 of its workers yesterday? rant rant rant

[Dances with Cats]

15. whatever the catalyst...

bring the revolt, bring it quick. I want to be in the vanguards....

[ignatius 2]

5. I was thinking about that today. We have Cheney who has had what

4 or 5 heart attacks now and yet he wheezes,sneers and snarls through another day to bring grief and misery to the world while our young people die.

Today is the anniversary of JFK's death and Poppy Bush,patriarch of the BFEE,who was most likely involved in the assassination of John,slithers through another day to bring chaos and death while acquiring power and billions of dollars. How does this continue to happen..Americans are being raped with their eyes wide open by these vile plundering creatures.

Meanwhile,how many of our young have died today for their trumped up war?

My version of hell for them is a pile of gold as far,as high and as wide as they can see. Only they are tethered at the ankly and can almost touch it,but miss by a few inches. Oh the wailing,the gnashing of teeth by these vile,warmongering whores will bring a smile to my face unmatched by any old cheshire cat!

8. I call it the New Orleans Holocaust, KoKo01

Bill Mahr wrote that George W. Bush was the "first president to ever lose an entire city."

[KoKo]

9. New Orleans Holocaust, indeed....Thanks David...

It's dreadful what's going on there...and we can't wrap our brains around it and how Bush/Cheney haven't bothered to go back down there since their butts were getting kicked.

Who has been to New Orleans...of our Leading Dems? Haven't seen Biden/Hillary or even "Big Dawg" back there...once the nitty gritty reality of the place needed to be dealt with.

Has anyone in our Congress or Bush Administration who isn't "Fema" related visited there lately? Maybe I missed it, but it sure hasn't seemed to be a place anyone want's to have a "photo op" from lately.

[pretzel4gore]

12. softened up for hell....

life's hard for most people, even those in rich countries like usa canada etc, life is hard, thankless and there's never any real rest from worries about money and bills etc...but the fatsos? well, life's a piece of cake to them, they eat or they nibble or they just push it aside and snort some pharmaceutical cocaine; hey even staying thin is that easy!....but the day comes when the old stiff gotta be recycled, earth needs replenishing and the unbreakable law is here and that's that. we all fear death, cuz it's a big unknown, but death is, for 99 percent of us, just another bad job to do, another awful thing to get over another problem to meet and deal with, and by god we do it....but cheney and bush and ledeen and all those milk fed monsters who smell like flowers and look like fine china all dressed up in expensive clothes, death is the biggest thing ever to happen to them, and no matter how hard they pretend, they aren't ready for it, cuz it even hurts all the little kids whom they killed...even them....

[KoKo]

17. you think they understand what they've done? I'm not sure they do.

I think it's all "collateral damage" to them. I wish I didn't think that but their actions have said to me...they care nothing about lives other than their own...much as they pretend.

Bush and Cheney were falling over the little kids today at the "P-residential Turkey Pardoning." You could have almost thought they genuinely enjoyed patting the little kids heads who were there and shaking hands with the parents. Maybe they were thinking back to when their own kids were small and had to go to a "Big Event" where there were some powerful "Grown Ups" and everyone was told to behave.

Yet...looking at them, I remembered that Hitler also seemed to exhibit a "human" side. He loved his dog and Eva...and was apparently jovial when in social settings. It's amazin how evil can somehow be masked with a basic instinct of love when one is in certain circumstances. What goes wrong in the "hard drive wiring" of these folks who turn out to be Dictators/Fasicists and Emperors? They love little children and the "small and meek" ...UNTIL!

[pretzel4gore]

20. probably not...

after all, they're goofs...at best, they probably delude themselves that they're making the 'hard, unpopular' choices which someday history will see as yada yada yada....they look each other in the eye and pretend it was all heavy duty necessary, but unless they're stupid, they know, just like the hitler crew knew (they ordered all traces of death camps covered up, but by then the low level nazis were probably memorising 'das capital' or 'huckleberry finn')

[Dances with Cats]

14. Hell no it isn't

It was early Nov 2000 when Bushco stole the White House.

[KerryOn]

16. Its not that they favored Iraqi's over American people its...

... that they favor THEMSELVES!

They could care less about the Iraq people.

[Ms. Clio]

19. Exactamente--I don't think the Iraqis feel "favored"

by the self-serving and brutal attentions of the PNACers.

[Initech]

18. I agree, what happened in New Orleans is absolutely unforgiveable!

And then the rethugs go and play the "blame game" (while simultaneously denying it) and placing all the blame on the city's democratic mayor and the state's democratic governor so they can get away with the biggest fuck-up in this country since 9/11. If these guys lived in the real world, they'd all be thrown in jail for something like this.

[KoKo]

21. A great American History City has bit the dust...and who cares?

who cares...:-( :cry:
