[QUOTE="moreluck, post: 1151093, member: 1246"] The real truth about Katrina is that Mayor Nagen of New Orleans, a black man, and Gov. Kathleen Blanco, a white Democrat, have failed their constituancy. What is even worse is they lack the character to admit mistakes and step up. They’re not leaders. They’re vote getters. Case in point. While it is true that New Orleans is demolished, so is the Mississippi Gulf Coast. Its not flooded, but virtually everything from coast for a quarter mile inland is gone. Is there a great hue and cry about George Bush failing those displaced people? No, because their leaders, the mayors of Gulf Port, Biloxi and other small towns, and their Govenor, Haley Barbor, are leaders. They prepared their people and their communities before the storm, to deal with what might be the reality after the storm. They are bouncing back together. WHAT HAPPENED IN NEW ORLEANS? People that could have left, didn’t. Why? Ask them. If they had the means and method to leave, and most people did, they are reaping the consequences of their own decision. That’s not Bush’s fault. They deserve help, short term and long term, and they are getting it, but they are there because they decided to stay.
