Is Prez an Auto-Racist?
Most Katrina Deaths White Says Louisiana State Agency
If the above statistics are true and more whites died per capita than black, and the delay in Katrina assistance from the federal government was racially based, then one could conclude that either George Bush blew it and killed the wrong people, or he secretly despises his own race. Either way can be worked by liberals to their own political advantage.
Just a thought.
Unless, the delay was just typical government bureaucracy in action. Nah, the other way makes more political hay.

;o) Quite true.
I think the delay, I prefer incompetence actually, is proof that big government does not work.
Bush has increased the size and role of government more than any president since FDR.
I agree. Sadly, Bush isn't conservative enough and let the spending get way out of hand. The Katrina fiasco gives us a clear message, "Don't put all your faith in government."
Coming from a hurricane state, we are pretty clear that we need to have excellent local and state plans if we are to survive. New Orleans and Lousiana politics played a big role in this disaster. Hmmm, who elected them!!!!
Interesting reading. Any thoughts about why this seems to be a closely kept secret? :)
Secret meaning why the incompetent response of the Feds? Or, the incompetence of the state and local authorities? I think you mean the locals, right?
I'll take a stab at it; let me know if I'm off. The political landscape is extremely volatile against the prez. Anything that can be construed to be a fault of the president is going to be what makes political hay these days. John Kerry made a huge tactical error politically by stating that if the Democrats gain the majority in the House and Senate, they have probable cause for impeachment, to which he jokingly said for the audience he addressed not to tell anyone.
This resonates with what they have been doing for the last two years, with the false charges of lying to Congress, Iraq being an illegal war, etc. ad nauseum. They want to impeach Bush so badly, that if they can find anything that "sticks," they will go for it. Currently, the NSA wiretaps is making politcal hay, with my own Senator Feingold (where's my paper sack, I'm so embarrassed to have him as my Senator) saying Bush broke the law. This works towards an impeachable offense. For if the President breaks the law while in office, he cannot be hauled into court; but, he can be impeached by the House, and tried in the Senate.
This would be a tit-for-tat response for Bill Clinton's impeachment that thoroughly embarrassed and angered the Democrats. It's payback time, and all the fury of Bush winning his first term by "stealing Florida," to his second term win with the help of the river boat captains, has turned the Dems into crazed raging lunatics.
At face value, they commit political suicide with their actions. What helps them is their raging lunatic constitutuents who are as angry or more so at Bush.
It is total, out-in-out raging warfare politically. This is as bad as during Lincoln's presidency, or the last years of Grant's. Amazing.
