The Pentagon should not be running the Disaster Relief

[DoYouEverWonder]

Last Wednesday, without fanfare and while most people were too distracted, Donald Rumsfeld took over control of the NOLA Disaster Response. Since then instead of launching an humanitarian response to the disaster, he launched a military response. The results have been a catastrophe.

The Pentagon only cares about 'security' they have no clue about getting people food and water. Look at Iraq. He is running this operation as badly if not worse then he has run Iraq for the last three years.

The storm is passed, the floods are receding. It is time to give back control to Civilian State Authorities. The Pentagon has no business running an humanitarian operation. They just don't even know how.

2. They did that one on purpose too

I know a guy on his second enlistment in the Marines, he's a career guy. Never been to Iraq or Afghanistan. Came close a couple of times, but his orders always get changed at the last minute. I wonder how many other lucky active duty military are here that never get sent into harm's way overseas, while the NG is on their 3rd and 4th tours?

4. Everything

These people didn't need armed guards, they needed food and water and the Pentagon deliberately withheld most aid from getting through.

5. That's just not welcome in Bushville. Got to get rid of them all!

These sickos think murdering poor people and ordering troops to do it is funny, just like in Gitmo. :mad: :mad: :mad:
