NOLA does not need a MILITARY Response
to the disaster. They need an HUMANITARIAN Response.

But since the only response Bush knows is a military one, this is what the poor people of the NOLA disaster are getting.

Guns instead of food and what. Way to go dipshit DIMSON.

2. That would be too easy
They could have gotten most of those people out on Sunday but BushCo couldn't be bothered. They issued a mandatory evacuation and then washed their hands. This is despite the fact that they knew from the 2000 US Census that 100,000 HOUSEHOLDS in New Orleans did not have their own transportation.

4. Bush - "we will SECURE the area and THEN we will provide aid"
People were starving and thirsty so they looted. Now they are starving and thirsty because they looted.

You will secure the area by PROVIDING AID!!! They are dimwitted weenies. How is it that the reporters are able to walk around in the open among the people, but the aid providers can't? If they are so scared then do massive air drops.

There is a disgusting thread somewhere on this board I think about a Loudon County Emergency Response team that was turned away and REFUSED by FEMA because they couldn't guarantee their saftey!!! So FEMA is turning away and REFUSING AID to these helpless starving American citizens.
