Countdown: Cheney slammed by New Orleans Cop
Edited on Thu Sep-08-05 07:18 PM by Cush
a NOPD cop told an NBC Reporter when asked about Cheney's visit, "Whats he gonna do now, try to get a cut of the 50 billion dollars the President has authorized?"

Said a lot of people there see it as nothing more than a photo op

6. And Matthews has been asking if he was going to the Gulf Coast....
To put a big foot on the ground and help get things done. Well, look who's getting done. Cheney is getting nothing short of a roasting from the people of the area. The only ones sucking up to him are the usual suspects.

Cheney : Turd blossom arranged a great photo op for me down here.

Bush : I told you he can take a dump and then bottle and sell
the aroma. Heh! Heh! Heh!

Cheney : Next time though, tell him I want fries with my smoked
salmon soufle.

17. Tweety spoke to a reporter in Baton Rouge who said people are sooo
Edited on Thu Sep-08-05 08:11 PM by Pirate Smile
pissed and mainly at Bush. He was at a Walmart talking to people who are LIVID.

I swear, this rage has to go somewhere or there is going to be trouble. I am so furious and my life hasn't changed at all, I'm not "personally" involved (although I feel like we have ALL been betrayed by our government).

This feels like a powder keg to me. This rage, disgust, and contempt has to go somewhere. It will not just disappear.

People waiting in lines and continuing to get screwed around by the Bush incompetence after their lives have been destroyed - I don't know how they will contain it. I would just explode.

22. ROTFL
These are great moments - the tide has sure turned although I heard Evelyn I think it was on CNN, a grocery shop owner in the town with the morgue, and when asked about having the morgue in her town, she scared me big time when she said she'd rather have 'those people' in her town dead since she won't have to worry about them robing her. I think she frightened herself with her comment for she then said that they have to go somewhere. Where do people find this level of hatred for people who look different. Damn!!

23. bigotry is one of the ugliest aspects of the human animal.
it serves no useful purpose, yet once it enters a soul, like a parasite, there seems no way to eradicate it without severe trauma or radical enlightenment.
It may sink below the surface for a time, but it ALWAYS shows itself when it feels threatened.

I wish we did not have it as a possible trait.

But, then again, without bigotry, would we have had Martin Luther King Jr.?
Without bigotry, would we have had Ghandi?

maybe there is a useful purpose, albeit a backhanded one.
