Heat,

If those two clowns didn't have racism to complain about.  They would be out of a job.  I will never forget the Tawanna Brawley case back in the 80's.  She put herself in a plastic bag and wrote racial epithets on the bag.  She said that two NY Police officers did it to her.  Clown Sharpton was there from the beginning.  She finally admitted that she did it because she didn't want to get in trouble with her Mom for being out all night.  Clown Sharpton continued to claim racism even though the cops didn't do anything to her.

Heat,

Right on. Jesse Jackson and Al Sharpton are a disgrace to their people!  In my mind, they are Reverands in name only.  They don't preach the gospel of the Lord Jesus Christ.  They preach the "gospel" of hate the white man, and the government owes you a living, etc!  It is unfortunate that those two, among others could not some how find themselves caught in one of these storms in a leaky boat! ha  I am being a little silly, but seriously, I think the minorities of all types (black, hispanic, asian, etc) all need to see themselves as americans and live useful lives.  Unfortunately, some of them choose to adopt  "the government and the world owes me something" attitude.  But, also unfortunately, the Jesse Jacksons and the Al Sharptons of this world have so brainwashed their own people-- they can't see the forest for the trees!

I think Jessie Jackson, Al Sharpton, Maxine Waters, and the rest of the race-baiters could serve a valuable purpose in New Orleans if we use them as sand bags to help fill the gaps in the levees... :-)

Ray,

That is hate speech. LOL.  I happen to agree with you.

The only problem with that "solution" is once their bloated fat asses gas up and explode, there will be another breach in the levee, only much larger. The military will later refer to them as the "JJ Bomb" and "Sharpton Scrapnel".

Problem is, it's not sand they're full of.

by lobbing these baseless accusations.   they are only feeding racial animosity and are doing nothing to improve the conditions in NO.   Now that the rescue operation is in full swing, I noticed the race baiters have backed off.

"why does the left feel the need to exacerbate the situation?"

National elections in a few years.

Gotta get those swing voters pumped up against the other side.

Malandro,

Unfortunately, the liberal left has no real plan of their own.  But, they are always taking swipes at the rest of us who want to continue to make this country great; and return our "family values" to the people.  But, make no mistake about it-- their day is coming!!

meanwhile the Democratic mayor and Governor did absolutely nothing in preparation of the storm.  

the Federal government responds to natural disasters as necessary.   it is the States and local governments who are responsible for emergency planning and preparation.

Malandro,

Exactly right.  That is the way I see it.  The mayor of New Orleans is out of his depth, and I suspect the Governor of Louisiana is too.  She almost seems to lose it when she is giving interviews on TV.  I know all of them are having a struggle, but I just don't think they were qualified or prepared to act quickly enough.  However, they certainly don't mind throwing the blame on the federal government, and particularly President Bush.  They should have dealt better with their own areas of responsibilty first, then called in the feds.  But, hindsight is always 20/20.  You will notice now, that the President is already launching an investigation, and so is Congress.  More of our tax dollars at work-- too little too late?  Oh well.

I totally agree with you. The mayor of New Orleans and the governor of Louisiana did not do their jobs.  If there were coperative executives,  they should be fired. The FEMA  director did not do his job.  He should be fired. We have the 101st airborne.  The troops could have been parachated in within hours to prevent looting. Many people did to be terminated from their jobs due to their performance
