If you can blame Louisiana for Katrina, why can't you blame NYC for 9/11? |
|
Are you saying that New York City didn't have enough warning regarding a potential terrorist attack? Didn't it happen before?
Why is Louisiana getting raked over the coals as a scapegoat, but no one blamed Giuliani for not responding quick enough to stop that second plane? Why didn't he have a plan in place?

lame brains out there. Making Louisiana the scapegoat, or even suggesting that blame should be shared, makes people less likely to feel sorry for the NOLA victims, and trust me, there will be a point where they will turn off their compassion to these people. We need to push the specifics about Blanco and Nagin. About her properly documented request for help and his proper attempts to evacuate the people. That message is no getting through the MSM.

2. Because cities have no control over the air traffic in their cities |

I think NOLA and Louisiana deserve the blame for a lot of what happened regarding the evacuation of the city. I think they deserve a a reasonable share of the blame for the levee failing.
I think the feds deserve a large share of the blame for the levee failing and pretty much all the blame for what ensued after the levee failed. The feds should be there to support the local and state authority and they were not, to its shame.

5. That's my point. Blanco and Nagin did everything they had to do. |
|
It wasn't enough because FEMA didn't give them the usual handshake that comes with these kinds of emergencies.

also, look at the victims- Why the hell anyone would choose to build buildings like the TT's and fill them with all sorts of offices INCLUDING federal offices that would make the building a target in and of itself.-
But, it is all the fault of the "A-Rabs". 'Our' hands are and always have been spotless- (bull-shit)
