2. Yes. And I've got a new policy, by the way.
Anyone saying "this is not a time for blame", is probably to blame.

8. My guess as to what she is to blame for...
She was not able to get the funding needed to improve the levees and she was unable to keep the wetlands from being developed. Both contributed in a major way to this disaster.

Saw the interview on NBC. Couldn't answer a question. No matter what was asked she just spouted some boiler plate crap, some admin talking points. The interviewer was perplexed and droped the interview after two questions cuz Landrieu just rambled on.

9. I missed her interview on NBC...
But I did see her on CNN thanking the President and everyone else who simply deserve no thanks in this at all. Anderson Cooper totally (and surprisingly) put the smack down on her, though. If the NBC interview was after that, then I see that she didn't learn anything from Anderson Cooper. He gets props for trying, though.

6. many of her votes make me barf...
But while I haven't liked her Bush butt-kissing this week, I figure that she hasn't slept much since Saturday and she's probably just repeating the same crap zombie-like right now. She's looking more glazed by the day.

It's easy to pick on Landrieu, but Democrats with a lot less to lose are saying NOTHING.

11. give the woman a break
her home town has been pretty much destroyed

put yourself in her place for a minute

everything you ever knew has been destroyed

people that you've sworn to represent have died by the hundreds and even though you're a member of the most exclusive group in the world, you don't have the power to save any of them

13. How do you feel about her brother?
Mitch Landrieu is our Lt. Gov....he has been in boats since this thing started, rescuing people off of roofs and transporting people...even after he was fired upon.

How do feel about the fact that for days and days Mary didn't know where her own parents were?

How do you feel about the fact that she held dying babies and old persons in her arms and comforted them while our leader in chief flew over for a few minutes and said "Gosh" what devastation?

How do you feel about the fact that she has been working 24/7 on trying to save her city and state?

Her fawning on other politicos is nauseating, but she is actively working for my state....do you see our Repuke senator, Vitter, out there talking to the nation??? Do you see any repuke officials from LA putting themselves forward to talk to the nation? Other than that idiot from FEMA of course.

Yes, Mary is a DINO....but, right now, she is working for the people of N.O. and for LA...here in LA, we are looking at her as a rock.

14. Gloria's son NAILED her last night -- yay Anderson!
I never thought I'd say that... he was all, "It makes people sick seeing politicians pat themselves on the back at a time like this when they haven't done anything," etc.
