Why them?

If it were a black community, would he be doing it?

Thanks obama, you're doing a GREAT job!
This post is asinine! Talk about a trolling race-bating garbage thread!

Get your Partisan hat off and your GOP rose coloured glasses...chuck them away and try to look at this with a open mind..... if that is possible
I'm not a republican. And I'm not blaming the govt for the disaster. I'm blaming the govt for the response.

It's pretty obvious that the Governor's response was what caused the most problems. Especially when she threatens to kill people without a trial. And when she refused to let nearly 60,000 troops trained for rescue missions into La.

But let's blame everyone else.

Great. Another wannabe fluid mechanics engineer. Flooding them is a lot cheaper than flooding the chemical plants, petro-chemical plants and oil refineries in Louisiana/Mississippi at the mouth of the Gulf.

But then I don't know, maybe you all like environmental disasters and would prefer to spend even more money that you don't have to clean up an environmental disaster than simply displacing a few thousand people.

No kidding! As if only whites are suffering from the flooding. It's obscene and misleading and a blatant lie...typical.

Th OP is having a joke at the expense of liberals and their reaction to Hurrican Katrina.

I only can think of a thing or two that I agree with Rush Limbaugh on. When he says librals have ZERO sense of humor he is spot on.

Good for you.

That's pretty much what caused it. Too much water at one time.

Where did you get your weather degree?

P.S. God should really be capitalized.
