Poor Kathleen Blanco.

[trof]

I do so pity her.
Having to suck up to George Bush.
But I guess she has to do it.
As bad as he's already screwed over New Orleans and the state, he could screw them even worse if she doesn't play nice.
It's sad.

1. Yeah. My thoughts also. Must suck to have to suck up to the fuck up

[LittleClarkie]

2. Because he's a vindictive fuck up

They use someone caring about their people against them in a way.

3. And guess what she'll get for it

Once FEMA writes up the reports both Blanco and Nagin will get the lions share of the blame for being unprepared, and then the Repukes will use this to make sure they are both voted out of office.

And NO will still get crumbs, she accomplished nothing by kissing his ass today, nothing. All she did was to assist in her own down fall, someone might as well hand her a gun with one bullet so that she can avoid the pain that's coming.

18. She'll be blamed for not making the proper "requests"

to FEMA for assistance. And if she defends herself, every clip of her thanking bush will be replayed over and over.

19. What she can get blamed for is not requesting enough guard help

and coordinating it. Only governors can ask for the guard to come in...in fact she could have asked for help from other governors to send guard units. I can't believe no one in the whole state had SAT phones....it's just all too depressing to think about. Bush fucked up and mishandled the fema assitance...but there were many other fuck ups before the feds.

4. She endorsed John Kerry

So I'm pretty sure she's not a real big fan of Bush

[ticapnews]

5. 360 with Anderson Cooper...

just mentioned that she went to the Superdome herself Tuesday night and called the president because she was pissed that there was NO ONE from FEMA on site. The mayor is pissed, too, and sick of these damned photo ops.

Anderson Cooper is now tearing Trent Lott a new one. :applause:

7. give me a fucking break

The feds bear the lion's share of blame here. Go peddle your right wing talking points somewhere else.

11. The blame is on our failure of a President

And his cronies in the cabinet. A FEMA director with no experience at the job; a stupid war using resources that were needed here. I am sorry you are such a fan of Bush- he is a sorry excuse for a human being and an even worse President.

15. Yeah, Rove has all his boys (and girls) floating that TURD in a punch bowl

but it's not going to stay afloat.

Everybody is getting out of the pool (of propaganda and neo-con lies). <eg>
