What would have happened if Blanco did sign over control to Bush?
Edited on Wed Sep-07-05 08:01 AM by DoYouEverWonder
Last Friday was a big turning point in this event. BushCo tried to pressure Blanco into signing control of her state over to the Federal Government.

If that has happened the pictures we would be seeing right now would be a lot different. Bush's little scheme was to turn New Orleans into Fallujah and if Blanco had signed that little piece of paper, New Orleans would be well on the way.

This is what I believed it would have looked like if Bush & Co had gotten away with their devious plan.

1000's of people would still be in the Superdome and the Convention Center. FEMA would have still not figured out how to deliver food and water because the situation had become too dangerous.

New Orleans would be secured and no one would be able to get in or out without authorization.

For the people trapped inside, life would be hell on earth. Fires breaking out all around. People dying left and right. Gangs rampaging the city, killing rapping and looting. At some point the gangs would have broken through weak areas in the security and start to terrorize the surrounding areas. Americans would be freaking out and running to get immunized for the plague that they would be told was going to break out. The US would have been turned into a military dictatorship. This is why Bush was laughing and eating cake last week. All he wanted was for "All of them to drown" and then the PNAC would be one step closer to destroying this country and the rest of the world.

1. When Bush was Gov, would he have signed TX over to Clinton?
NO. he wouldn't.

To answer your question, I really have no idea what would happen if Blanco would have signed LA over. Did Bush only want LA or did he also ask the Governors of MS and AL?

2. I agree. The "City of Louisiana" would have been the
foot-in-the-door that he wants, to finalize the takeover. I'm sure there is another plan.

3. If she'd done that, Bush would have called Mother Nature a terrorist
and initiated strikes against her strongholds. I understand she has outposts in wilderness areas in the Amazon, the Pacific Northwest, and the Congo.

5. Well yeah, but by firebombing her wilderness strongholds, we
can cut back on her production of oxygen thus reducing the need to release more CO2.

6. this banter between us...is this freeper foreplay?
:rofl:

yes, your firebombing ideas are brilliant! We must fight mother nature in her wilderness strongholds so that we won't have to fight her here! One question though...what can we pay Halliburton to do?

7. Hehehe, Halliburton can put out the fires afterward and build
oil refineries on the land. . . . oh and Hummer dealerships too. :)

8. And the freepers can start the fires first
I think we are seeing a bit of that right now. They guys you ran around with the wire clippers after the storm are probably going around with the gas and the matches.
