I am VERY concerned about what is going on in Louisiana

Another meme bites the dust

I am extremely concerned about some of the things that are going on in Louisiana, and particularly New Orleans. From an AP report:

“Gov. Bobby Jindal laid out the state’s emergency preparedness plan this evening for the potential arrival of Hurricane Gustav, which he said could make landfall in Louisiana sometime early Tuesday.

The state’s catastrophic action team has been activated and the governor plans to hold a meeting Wednesday of his unified command group, who are key officials with state agencies that would be dealing with the emergency.”

Are you kidding me? If it was George W. Bush’s fault last time, it is certainly his resposibility this time! And isn’t talking about this so early a little…well…prepared?

“If the storm continues to head toward Louisiana, the governor on Thursday would exercise state contracts for up to 700 buses to assist with evacuations.

Assisted evacuations could begin as early as Friday and evacuations from hospitals and medical care facilities would begin Saturday. Evacuations by rail also could begin Saturday.”

Evacuations? We don’t need no stinkin’ evacuations! Incredibly, a plan to actually use buses to do the evacuations has been put in place already.

“The state has identified locations for 10,000 critical care beds for evacuees and 68,000 regular beds for evacuation.”

To add to the mischief that Jindal is planning, the state has already identified people in the area of potential landfall who may need extra assistance.

I am also extremely concerned that Don’t Interrupt My Dinner Ray Nagin, who is incredibly STILL the mayor of New Orleans, is having a news conference right now, probably to inform the residents of New Orleans that a hurricane has them in the bulls eye, and they might actually want to take some precautionary responsibility.

Like I said before, the one thing that we are absolutely sure of is that George W. Bush was directly and personally at fault for the way things were handled in Louisiana and New Orleans when Hurricane Katrina hit, and any plan or preparation is his most certainly HIS responsibility now.

Right?

    Remember that Mayor Moron of Nawrlins refused to use the school busses, which were offered because they were not air-conditioned.

    And remember that Dubya himself actually caused the hurricane!

    By refusing to believe in the myth of global warming, his disbelief caused a depression in the tropics, seeding the hurricane.

    Yes, George W. Bush’s election guaranteed that Global Warming would continue unabated and result in catastrophic (and racist) hurricanes, the likes of which had never been seen in a millenia, hitting the United States and killing only black people – the very people George Bush doesn’t care about.

    In the basement of the White House he was pulling levers and pushing buttons so that the refugees in the sports stadium would start raping and murdering each other.

    So that when the police and National Guard showed up looking for all these strangled, knifed, shot, and clubbed bodies…

    there weren’t any…and all those rape victims…where did they go?

    Ethnic Cleansing was a term used as well: Cheney told the Army Corps of Engineers to put cracks in all the levees.

    Everybody knows it! Daily KOS said so!
