I’m beginning to think it may be best to let the Republic collapse. Let the democrats have their way.… let the cities burn… withdraw into the midwest… arm up… and when the US nation collapses, Move back in by force and re-establish the nation on the principles our founders intended.

There’s no sese risking our lives for those that hate us.

“It’s not worth risking your life defending people who hate you. I won’t make the obvious comment about Democrat policies destroying the military. And I won’t connect that to the Democrat Governor’s ultraslow moves to re-establish order.”

I am pleased that you have not made these comments. If you had, I might have thought that you had little honor. If you had, I might have thought that you would have died in a duel in an earlier era for such an insult. If you had, I might consider you to be un-Christian, for Christ most certainly died for those who hated Him, and He certainly thought it was worthwhile. If you had, I might consider you to be dismissive of our way of government. If you had, I would most certainly consider you to have little understanding of what makes America a nation worth living in.

But you did not make those comments, and so I do not have to think any of these disgraceful things about you. I am pleased.

Well your being pleased is of course the most important consideration.

What kind of mentality uses a disaster as an opportunity to release the inner beast? To main, loot and kill? What sort of government is so imcompetent that it has a corrupt police force and gives free reign to the worst elements in society?

Worse than these are the media? I am sick of seeing the suffering of the lower end of the gene pool who voluntary stayed in New Orleans when there are others who are suffering in other areas but have choosen to start rebuilding rather than whine and complain.

What you are seeing is the result of 40 years of institutionalized welfare creating a permanent underclass, nihilism, destruction of values, liberalism and a policy of “victimization” which means that no one is responsible for their actions because they are a “victim”. Add to that the “gansta”ism pushed by the LLL’s as something to be proud of and aspire to.

Now, didn’t you all notice all the plain red tshirts and plain blue tshirts that many wore at the Superdome? There were alot of red and blue tshirts on the looters, too. All were the same shade of red or blue with no decoration or slogans. What you saw there were the gangs who chose to stay behind because they knew the cops wouldn’t be able to hold the city and it would be like Christmas. They could loot all the “bling”, drugs, guns, clothes, electronics etc. that they wanted. They knew they could rob, rape, pillage, and settle old scores without interferrence. Then these same “people” when they started running out of food/water/things to steal melted into the crowds at the Convention center and Superdome waiting for a ride out. Also, if you noticed they tended to sit together in the crowds and were some of the most vocal in their complaints that “no one was taking care of them”.

If that stupid Governor would have activated the National Guard sooner and Mayor would have ordered shoot to kill all looters the lawlessness we have seen might have been averted. Having a couple corpses in the street without heads and with a big “LOOTER” sign on it is a powerful deterrent for these gangbangers are cowards at heart. The Mayor and the Governor blundered BADLY, am not surprised. They are the product of the corrupt Democratic machine which has run Louisiana for decades.

Welfare will of necessity be at poverty level. The greater the ease of access to welfare the more people are condemned to live in poverty. As for those red and blue T-shirts? Anybody wearing one should be shipped to Parris Island.

This says that the New Orleans/Metairie/Kenner, LA metro area had a 4.6% unemployment rate for 2004. Where can I find some up-to-date welfare figures, instead of relying on guesses?

Ooops!! Here it is:

It was business as usual in new orleans with these “people”, waiting for a handout while doing nothing to help themselves but steal and kill. I applaud President Bush for being strong enough to resist and ignore their calls for help as long as he did. In doing so he caused the deaths of more of these thugs, so that we can proceed with restoring order without worrying about being shot in the back by one of these animals.

WHAT IS WRONG WITH ALL OF YOU??? DO YOU NOT UNDERSTAND THAT THIS WAS ONE OF THE BIGGEST NATURAL DISASTERS OF ALL TIME TO HIT THE UNITED STATES???? WE NEED TO CHANGE THE NAME OF OUR COUNTRY FROM THE UNITED STATES TO DIVIDED STATES. TO THE PERSON THAT SAID: “It was business as usual in new orleans with these “people”, waiting for a handout while doing nothing to help themselves but steal and kill. I applaud President Bush for being strong enough to resist and ignore their calls for help as long as he did” MAYBE YOU SHOULD TRY REALLY HARD TO GET A BRAIN AND SOME EMPATHY. NOT EVERYONE IN NEW ORLEANS WAS WAITING FOR A HANDOUT. YOU, APPARENTLY, ARE WELL-OFF AND PROUD OF IT. SOME PEOPLE ARE NOT THAT LUCKY. SOME PEOPLE HAVE TO DEAL WITH YEAR AND YEARS OF WELFARE AND ARE NOT GIVEN A CHANCE FOR A DECENT LIVING BECAUSE OF RACISTS LIKE YOU!!!!!!!! YOU TRULY HAVE NO HEART. I AM NOT SAYING THAT SOME PEOPLE THAT STAYED BEHIND IN NEW ORLEANS WERE NOT BAD PEOPLE, BUT THERE ARE BAD PEOPLE EVERYWHERE. YOU ARE ONE OF THEM! TO SAY THAT YOU ARE HAPPY THAT OUR NATION’S LEADER IGNORED THEM MEANS THAT YOU ARE ADMITTING THAT YOUR BELOVED PRESIDENT MESSED UP! YOU ARE AN IDIOT!!! LOL…GOD BLESS ALL THE VICITMS OF THIS HORRIBLE TRAGEDY THAT WAS CAUSED BY A NATURAL DISASTER. I AM SURE MOST OF YOU COMMENTERS ONLY WISH THAT IT HAD BEEN CAUSED BY “THOSE PEOPLE WAITING FOR A HANDOUT IN NEW ORLEANS” SHAME ON YOU!!!!! GOD WILL TAKE CARE OF YOU!

“you people” commenting above who are not part of the solution but only of the problem need to stop playing republican hate democrat and white hate black games. these issues have no place in the recovery effort. why don’t you keep your ignorance and putrid hate to yourselves and if you’re not going to put up (help), then please shut up. you’re not helping anyone with your disgusting rhetoric.

Are you insane? 9/11 + 4 Years = Katrina. Democratic policies haven’t wrecked the military, Iraq has. World War II was won in less time than Bush has had since 9/11, and this is the best he can do.

New Orleans: An Empire without pumps

NEW ORLEANS IS BEING CONDEMNED BECAUSE THE GREAT AMERICAN EMPIRE DOES NOT HAVE PUMPS.

Why nobody pays attention to the fact that13 days after Katrina hits the one and only super power cannot get pumps started. Do not give the proud people of New Orleans food anymore, they are not beggars pumpm their water out of their city into the Canals. Why are they evaccuating the people and make refugees out of them? Is there a conspiracy to retake New Orleans and remake it. That is why they are forcibly removing people even out of dryland which is 40 percent of the city. NEW ORLEANS PASIFICATION: An “Enormous Success” Dick Cheney Declared

FARHAT MAQUAMI

Republicans might still pull a fast one and bring a reversal of misfortunes for their failed policies. They might reverse what is a total failure of leadership to an enormous success of Disaster Capitalism. Look how they declared the sophisticated implosion and “pulling down” the WTC buildings in 911 as the work of Muslims who did not utter Allah’s name once. in any of the black boxes, even at the time of death. Then they impeded a real investigation.

They pulled off another fast one in Iraq and called it failure of intelligence and fooled the world and are still kicking. Now they are acting according to Pascual’s text book who heads the Office of the Coordinator for Reconstruction and Stabilization. Its mandate is to draw up an elaborate “post-conflict” plans, whether it is the Act of God or Act of Bush! To profit from rebuilding what one deliberately destroys! In January Condoleezza Rice described the Tsunami as “a wonderful opportunity” that “has paid great dividends for us.” Many were horrified at that statement and no-one would mention it now!! Now Cheney declares this failure of leadership as an “Enormous Success”

After 911 Homeland Security Department was empower to federalize a disaster when the Mayor of New Orleans failed to use his 400 buses to evacuate the defenseless citizens. It failed to act. After ten days they have not repaired or blocked the breaches in the two remaining levees. We are ten days after the disaster and it seems that nobody in charge. How this could have happened in America?

Over one hundred thousands of people did not have cars. The mayor did not organize the buses to help his helpless citizens. Now the same mayor who betrayed those who elected him is issuing order and is intimidating residents to evacuate the city. The Mayor still passes ordinances and is forcing people to leave their houses. Even at this moment all helps comes from wonderful people not the government.More than 60,000 of armed forces are going house to house in combat fatigue to secure the area as if it is a combat zone and the citizens are the enemy, who must be pacified.

Political blame should fell squarely on the chain of command. People wanted to leave . Those who could run listened to the Mayor request to go to convention center which proved to be a hoax . Four hundred of city buses were stranded because of cities lack of planning, panic and disorganization. The city officials, FEMA and Department of Homeland Security are first to blame for the Chaos

The difference between those who lived and those who died was race and poverty. If this has happened in a white middle class community it would not gone the same way. The media exaggerated and lied about honorable citizens of New Orleans. Most stories of rape, riots, break-ins was and disorderly conducts was our right lies and came out of the racist imagination. The racist media described the honorable citizens of New Orleans as “uncivilized” , gangsters, violent murderers who are shooting people at random to steal their property. As we know now all racist commentators were wrong. The only crime that happened in New Orleans was dereliction of duty by public officials. They are the ones who must be held accountable for the state of despair of Levees, lack of preparation for the up-coming storm, and failure to protect the security life, and welfare of its citizens. This is a white color-crime and criminals must be put in trials.

The question is why when the dry lands in New Orleans is completely secured the mayor and chaotic chain of command is forcing people to evacuate the city. No News organization has questioned the fact why the government started with the propaganda that there is riot and gangs of disorderly hoodlums have taken the law in their hand. Except a few exception non was true. Then why this city is being treated like an occupied Baghdad and more than 60,000 uniformed officers and even contractors from Bechtel are trying to “secure” it. Why instead of helping people to stay ad help themselves, rebuild their community and take care of their property they are treating them as morons who should be air lifted, as if they are in war zone.

Why this War Zone mentality and why there was no FEMA truck in town to help people even after 10 days? Why no one question the Bush administration that it is the privatization of FEMA which put it in disarray not the hurricane? Why no-one questions the fact that there might be a conspiracy to get every body out of town and exaggerate the damage, refuse to start he pumps so all houses to be condemned, then come with billions of dollars to be contracted to Bechtel, and other Corporations to secure and then rebuild the city. For the bush administration
