		<description>I went to New Orleans with UMass Boston with 49 other students by bus.  The children had no books for school!  January 2007, 2 years later.  There was an estimated 80,000 homes that still needed to be gutted.  Our group gutted 12 houses valued at $6,000 each.

People have been displaced and are still displaced because FEMA has not done their intended job.  I met a lot of nice people and pray that they keep the little hope they left on their future.</description>

		<description>George Bush has the blood of every person who died on his hands and the best he can come up with is that he is happy that another restaurant catering to rich white people is reopening. Excuse me while I go puke. I am ashamed to be an American.</description>

		<description>The saddest part of Katrina are the people who lost their lives and the suffering endured by so many others.  (Some tremendous bravery was exhibited - the young man who &quot;hijacked&quot; one of Mayor Nagin&#039;s school buses, loaded it with people and drove all the way to Houston - what a great kid!)  That said....maybe New Orleans, always with an astronomical homicide rate, public officials and law enforcement so corrupt (and vile) for centuries, can move forward.  

New Orleans....hot, humid, full of mold and mildew, insects everywhere....but the food was great......</description>

		<description>I don&#039;t think Bush addressed the matter at hand, that New Orleans needs the funds to rebuild, and that people there are suffering everyday, yet those funds are trickling down so slowly that everyone is giving up hope and moving away.  And it&#039;s true that the hurricane did not break the spirits of the citizens, but the lack of support and help is though.

He makes an almost assy statement on how New Orleans is slowly rebuilding, slowly but surely?.  It just seems that he does not understand the duress that the people in the disastrous area is going through.  That they have to live there everyday, and not just go there on occasion.</description>

		<description>If we didn&#039;t have the ability to overcome these forces of nature, I would agree cindy, but, living below sealevel is NOT an &quot;another worldly&quot; occurrence. Look at Amsterdam,. And with Global Warming, many more cities now at sea level, London, NYC, LA, etc. will be the next New Orleans. We should USE N.O. as a proving ground for Global Warming technologies.</description>

		<description>you know, rebuilding New Orleans is like rebuilding a city next to a volcano, its gonna eventually be taken down again.  The only thing that should be there is the oil and gas lines for our country and not a residential city.  Its also now on the list for terrorists who want to cause a lot of destruction.  stupid to rebuild it</description>

		<description>And don&#039;t forget the hundreds of millions of dollars in cash and material assistance from foreign donors that the Bush administration turned down.

Why&#039;d the most corrupt administration do this?

Because any foreign assistance would have cut into their Republican crony pal&#039;s profit margin.

Any money or materials given freely to Gulf Coast residents devastated by Hurricane Katrina would have meant less U.S. taxpayer money that the Bush administration could dole out to their corporate Republican pals.

Profit. Profit. Profit. This is the only word in the Repubican vocabulary. Even as they seek to profit at the expense of all other U.S. citizens.

This is also why Iraq looks like it does today.

To Republicans, it&#039;s all about profit, profit, profit, which is why the CPA under Paul Bremer was created in Iraq, to make certain that Republicans, and only Republicans, would profit, profit, profit, from Bush&#039;s and Cheney&#039;s illegal invasion of an oil-rich sovereign nation in the Middle East.

Can any single damn Repubican be trusted anymore? Their greed has trumped our national security. Their lust for power has hurt our nation&#039;s fiscal health. Their hatred of all social programs has endangered our nation&#039;s children and grandchildren...as well as our nation&#039;s senior citizens.

Hurricane Katrina and Iraq are just symptoms of the overall corruption that has consumed the Republican Party of today, with profit, profit, profit, being the only thing that matters to them...and to hell with all the rest of us.</description>

		<description>Poor Dave in Boca. He can dish it out, but he just can&#039;t take it. He seems to think this is impressive: &quot;I was Pol/Mil Officer in the US Embassy in Saudi and know whereof I speak.&quot;

If that is true (which I doubt), it only verifies the depth of the stupidity of our relationship with the Saudis. Dave, your enabling of the Saudis was part of the reason 3000 people were killed on 9-11 in New York. 15 of the 19 killers were your Saudi friends. You are simply simpering apologist for the worst terrorists our country has ever faced. And, you&#039;re a symbol of the complete failure of our current foreign policy. Dave, Osama bin Laden&#039;s very first and most important demand was that we get our military bases out of Saudi Arabia. Your cult leader gave him what he wanted. bin Laden&#039;s second demand was that the &quot;secular dicator&quot; of Iraq be removed from power. Your cult leader, again, gave him what he wanted.

Dave, you&#039;re so full of yourself that you seem to think you&#039;ve got something to teach people around here. All you do is reaffirm to us that Bush cultists are the most idiotic, absurd, excuses for Americans we have today.</description>

Itâ€™s interesting to note, as I did, that out of all the abuse being heaped on Bush, Gonzo and Rove by right wingers like Viguerie, no one seems to have a problem with how Bush handled Katrina.

I&#039;m just surprised that not many major blogs have written about this. At least this place and C&amp;L has.</description>

		<description>Just heard on MSNBC&#039;s Chris Matthews show that students at the New Orleans school that Dubya visited today were &lt;strong&gt;&quot;muzzled&quot;&lt;/strong&gt; in order to restrict negative comments.
How unusual, how contemptible!!!
Wonder what the rest of the MSM will report on the so-called evening news tonight???
No wonder his approval ratings are so high. If the media was halfway honest, the real approval would be around 10%, give or take a few &quot;dead&quot; folks who participated in the polls.</description>

		<description>Honestly, I hate these people so much I can hardly stand it.

I&#039;d bet my life that the people of NOLA would MUCH RATHER have had the MONEY it cost to fly Chimpy &amp; Co. down there for another useless photo op than Chimpy his ownself. 

And then another $50 BILLION for Bush&#039;s bloody and useless war...? 

God help us. That is so wrong. AMERICANS are suffering - right here in AMERICA. 

IMPEACH!!</description>
