Notice how every Repub will say 'state and local authorities' at every TV

[Mayberry Machiavelli]

appearance now. From Shrub to Tom Delay. They may not say 'state and local authorities screwed up' but they WILL say 'state and local authorities' somewhere in there spiel, as part of the mantra Rove is putting out.

1. Yes Also They Hate The "Blame Game!"

Right now they do that is...and they should.

2. Yes, absolutely

Mayor Nagin and Governor Blanco are definitely being set up to be the 'fall guys'.

[patdem]

3. Yeah, 'we aren't going to blame anyone, but if the mayor and governor

had done their jobs, we would not have to not blame anyone'...they are the worst joke in history...we cannot afford these bufoons any longer they are breaking our backs and our banks!

4. We never had this problem when Democrats were in control.

The Democrats KNEW what the federal government was for and they took their job seriously. These State Righter Republicans have shown the weakness in their idealogy. That weakness is, that where federal Republicans are looking to punish Democratic states, people will die.

5. Cockroach Delay said govs of Alabama and Mississippi responded better

than governor of Louisiana.

Only coincidence, of course, that they are both Repukes. :sarcasm:

6. Maybe Delay should show us the proof.

What did their governors do different? Make a phone call to the country club?

You know, this all shows that White Men right-wingers can only relate to themselves.
