3. thank you...must be kismet, because i was about to post
about DIMINISHING people's suffering by using language like "blame" and "game." it's not blaming, and it most definitely is not a "game."
it is about accountability and responsibility.

4. and I blame big!
I blame Bush for not being accountable to or responsible for the welfare and safety of the people.

I blame Bush for cutting funds to FEMA and NOLA flood control projects.

I blame corporo-fascist America for promoting the rugged individualist meme, while corrupt politicians, companies, and CEO's profit from war and misery.

I blame everybody who voted for Bush.

I'm upset, outraged, and angry .. and that's understatement.

What happened and didn't happen was pure evil.

6. Hurricane season isn't over yet. FEMA outsourced its planning/evacuation
Edited on Tue Sep-06-05 03:43 PM by EVDebs
responsibilities.

I've read that instead of using local, Louisiana school buses and transit buses, that out of state bus charter companies from as far away as OH and NC were contracted by FEMA to evacuate the Superdome and the Convention Center. That process took DAYS to accomplish.

There's your explanation for the delays. Outsourcing. It's killed jobs and now it's literally killing people !

Remember, with this administration, Outsourcing is a 'good thing'.
