murder. This got an audible gasp from one of the aides I spoke with. It WAS murder occurring before our very eyes, a capital offense. Don't let them bury this or hide it. The response to Katrina was criminal.

7. I don't care anymore. We watched thousands of our fellow
Edited on Wed Sep-07-05 04:55 PM by Skidmore
citizens die because this administration discounted them on the basis of race and social class. And at the same time the party in power was planning to come back with an agenda to further denigrate them as citizens by extending the looting of the treasury. It is the TRUTH. They might as well have lined these people up against walls and shot them one by one in the head. I want jusice for those old folks in that nursing home, the babies that were raped or died of dehydration, those that drowned, those that will bear scars into the future. Justice. I want our nation's honor to be restored. I demand that the people in power act with decency and honor and find justice for the victims of this horrendous act of negligence. Those in power now KNOW this was negligent and that it was criminal, hence the ferocity of the spin. Don't let them get away with it! Those that would sanction this sort of criminal behavior are the extremists and deserve to be stripped of power.

4. That's the word I've been using today...
Yesterday it was criminally negligent homicide, today it's premeditated murder.

8. Crimes against humanity
I told my reps I needed to hear them speak out against crimes against humanity or I would hold them personally accountable for covering up these murders.
