I don't think that the enormity of has happened in NOLA is understood by many in this country. Our government is holding press conferences and sending 144 generators to the area, feeding the American public the "Good News". Yet, entire areas in and around the city are forgotten!
They're thinking too small! WHERE IS THE VISION AND WISDOM OF OUR LEADERS! THERE IS NONE! A major American city has been sacrificed because of the skimping and squabbling over allocation of funds by our government. Thousands upon thousands are displaced and have lost their homes and jobs for months maybe years! The levees broke and and it COULD HAVE BEEN AVOIDED.
Aid is being withheld in NOLA for 5 days so that it could co-incide with the arrival of the president. People and animals are dying in the streets of a city in ruins while our Govt leaders are going to fundraisers and shopping for shoes and posing for photo-opps. Our soldiers are dying in Iraq unable to full fill the duties they signed up for and unable to protect our citizens.
All this HAS TO STOP! It’s now is too dog gone late for NOLA We must fight and change the course of this country more then ever before. or it will be too dog gone late for the entire country!
We owe it to them to fight for changes in this country until the bitter end!
