We earlier discussed what happened in New Orleans and many of you disagreed with me about how unbelievably bad our government dealt with that situation. Well, I read this article this morning about McCain's visit yesterday and what he had to say about how awful Bush dealt with that situation and I have to concede the goodness in his message and will now spend more time listening to his views. I'm proud of the man

McCain visits New Orleans

Now it wasn't too difficult now, was it? And a very neat job you did, too, T4P.

I think it took some courage to make those remarks from McCain, and I have to agree with him. The Central Government certainly did a botched and bungled job of responding to the hurricane not in just NewOrleans, but in all of the devastated areas as well. The sense of urgency with which the US responded to the Tsunami in the Asian Pacific was certainly nowhere to be seen when our own citizens saw their homes destroyed, their towns devastated, and their lives suddenly turned upside-down. The money Congress voted to aid them was largely unspent two years later, and the technocrats and bureaucrats not only wasted a good bit of it, but put people in unsafe trailers and spread a community across half the nation.
