Glad to hear your above using the dead as a soapbox to politicize a national tragedy. Next time you lose your car keys start looking in the folds under your tits to save time.
As for where our rescue copters and National Guardsmen what "the Laft" need to understand is that staging literally thousands of rescue workers and equipment takes time. We have the best rescue people in the world but there is no magic wand that even the President can wave to make things instantly better. Perhaps if Mayor C. Ray Nagin and Louisiana Gov. Kathleen Babineaux Blanco were first concerned about keeping law and order instead of search and rescue missions our private charities could have been in there earlier.
Furthermore, a representative of the Army Corps of Engineers has stated that the critical Levee work was completed, that it was up to designed specs. The problem is, those specs were for a class three hurricane, not a four or five. Secondly of the funds that were transferred to New Orleans over the last decades, were diverted by the local levee boards to buy a Gambling Casino and a private marina. It would appear that the "Big Easy's" reputation for inept governance and corruption is well deserved.
You keep dodging Michael Wislon, Christopher Hitchens, David Harley and when our brave boys and girls in Iraq accomplish their mission, we'll all know it wasn't in your name.
Love ya
