This is apologist [censored]. 7,500 hundred is a joke, and what were
they doing, did they have boats. How many medics? How many kitchens?
Ask some serious questions. Don't blame the troops, take a look at
yourself and think about what you've had to say and done to our
military, along with hammering the absolute SCUM running the Penatagon
today.
[censored] poor palnning and excuses b their trained media seals are

I'm sickened by how little we have been able to do, and how slowly it
happened as a military person. I think we owe N.O. and it's people a
huge apology, except we've been getting screwed over a lot longer with
noone paying attention, or they were cheering it on. This is the
result.

I'll toss out another couple of good ones:

http://news.yahoo.com/s/ap/20050903/ap_on_re_us/katrina_national_guard

WASHINGTON - Several states ready and willing to send National Guard troops to
the rescue in hurricane-ravaged New Orleans didn't get the go-ahead until days
after the storm struck a delay nearly certain to be investigated by Congress.

New Mexico Gov. Bill Richardson offered Louisiana Gov. Kathleen Blanco help from
his state's National Guard on Sunday, the day before Hurricane Katrina hit
Louisiana. Blanco accepted, but paperwork needed to get the troops en route
didn't come from Washington until late Thursday.

http://americablog.blogspot.com/2005/09/bush-faked-levee-repair-for-photo-op.html

From a press release LA Senator Mary Landrieu sent out today:
But perhaps the greatest disappointment stands at the breached 17th Street
levee. Touring this critical site yesterday with the President, I saw what I
believed to be a real and significant effort to get a handle on a major cause of
this catastrophe. Flying over this critical spot again this morning, less than
24 hours later, it became apparent that yesterday we witnessed a hastily
prepared stage set for a Presidential photo opportunity; and the desperately
needed resources we saw were this morning reduced to a single, lonely piece of
equipment. The good and decent people of southeast Louisiana and the Gulf Coast
- black and white, rich and poor, young annd old - deserve far better from their
national governmeent.

...And for the entire time Bush was in the state, the congressman said, a ban
on helicopter flights further stalled the delivery of food and supplies.

Bush visit halts food delivery
By Michelle Krupa
Staff writer

Three tons of food ready for delivery by air to refugees in St. Bernard Parish
and on Algiers Point sat on the Crescent City Connection bridge Friday afternoon
as air traffic was halted because of President Bushs visit to New Orleans,
officials said.

The provisions, secured by U.S. Rep. Charlie Melancon, D-Napoleonville, and
state Agriculture Commissioner Bob Odom, baked in the afternoon sun as Bush
surveyed damage across southeast Louisiana five days after Katrina made landfall
as a Category 4 storm, said Melancons chief of staff, Casey OShea.

We had arrangements to airlift food by helicopter to these folks, and now the
food is sitting in trucks because they wont let helicopters fly, OShea said
Friday afternoon.

The food was expected to be in the hands of storm survivors after the president
left the devastated region Friday night, he said.

-----------------

As some of the blogs are calling it: Operation Photo Op. Now think about the
response to the hurricanes in Florida during 2004. Slightly different, wasn't
it? Well, let's see now, election year, swing state, hmmm.

"If he could go to Baghdad, why didn't Bush go to the New Orleans Superdome or
the Convention Center? It was bizarre for all of the country and much of the
world to be watching those scenes for days on our TVs and news reports, and for
Bush's photo ops to be in areas that were far less critical. I know there are
security considerations but his visit seemed extraordinarily hollow even by this
administration's standard of ultra-stage managed events.

Dutch viewer Frank Tiggelaar writes:

There was a striking dicrepancy between the CNN International report on the Bush
visit to the New Orleans disaster zone, yesterday, and reports of the same event
by German TV.

ZDF News reported that the president's visit was a completely staged event.
Their crew witnessed how the open air food distribution point Bush visited in
front of the cameras was torn down immediately after the president and the herd
of 'news people' had left and that others which were allegedly being set up were
abandoned at the same time.

The people in the area were once again left to fend for themselves, said ZDF.

Operation Photo Op in effect.

years by the Nazi's, spent every night in shelters

that crazy?

Mostly - but unfortunately it seems that rapes did increase (although
many women have only recently admitted it due to the stigma it bore in
those days) and certainly there were many cases of looting bombsites.
The black market also thrived...:-(
Despite that there was a strong feeling of solidarity amongst the vast
majority of people.

Finally, I lived in Pensacola for 3 years. I believed then, and this proves
it,
that New Orleans is a swamp of corruption, criminality, and incompetence.
Big surprise that when the lights go out the place turns into hell.

The demographics where I live are nothing at all like those of New
Orleans. But one similarity is a high rate of gun ownership.

It occured to me that if something similar ever happened here you
would find out very quickly just how many methamphetamine addicts
were out there as soon as the withdrawal started kicking in. And
that it wouldn't matter at all that methamphetamine addiction is
white and rural as opposed to crack addiction which is black and
urban. Especially once you added in lots of guns.
