1. He has to rebuild his non-existant credibility first. nt.

[NanceGreggs]

2. Busy figuring out which American city ...

... will be the next to go!

[KamaAina]

3. They eased him out of that role on the QT before Fitzmas

and installed a little filthy rich repuke nonentity named Donald Powell in his place.

Which begs the question, "Why isn't Donald Powell working on rebuilding New Orleans?"

Answer: I can't fathom why not. Because they really are as cruel and heartless as they appear? :grr: Because they prefer a smaller, whiter, possibly more repuke New Orleans? Because, as an article on Stratfor suggested, the city and its strategic port have not been abandoned but seized? :scared:

Your guess is as good as mine.

9. No votes there for the GOP with original inhabitants. So, wait to

condemn land, sell it to "developers" and then see if there will be some votes there.

Remember, there is a "complete lack of policy appratus" at thiw White House. The reign of the Mayberry Machiavellis.

They only do political campaigns.

4. I'm sure he's in a smoke filled room with Halliburton, Bally, Disney,

Bechtel, and the Bin Ladens, working on it right now. Just you wait, "Bally's Gumboland New Orleans Jazz Resort" will be fabulous: all shiny and white.

President Discusses Hurricane Relief in Address to the Nation
Jackson Square
New Orleans, Louisiana
Sept 2005

Tonight I propose the creation of a Gulf Opportunity Zone, encompassing the region of the disaster in Louisiana and Mississippi and Alabama. Within this zone, we should provide immediate incentives for job-creating investment, tax relief for small businesses, incentives to companies that create jobs, and loans and loan guarantees for small businesses, including minority-owned enterprises, to get them up and running again. It is entrepreneurship that creates jobs and opportunity; it is entrepreneurship that helps break the cycle of poverty; and we will take the side of entrepreneurs as they lead the economic revival of the Gulf region.

I propose the creation of Worker Recovery Accounts to help those evacuees who need extra help finding work. Under this plan, the federal government would provide accounts of up to $5,000, which these evacuees could draw upon for job training and education to help them get a good job, and for child care expenses during their job search.

And to help lower-income citizens in the hurricane region build new and better lives, I also propose that Congress pass an Urban Homesteading Act. Under this approach, we will identify property in the region owned by the federal government, and provide building sites to low-income citizens free of charge, through a lottery. In return, they would pledge to build on the lot, with either a mortgage or help from a charitable organization like Habitat for Humanity. Home ownership is one of the great strengths of any community, and it must be a central part of our vision for the revival of this region.

6. That was a right fine sounding piece of speechifying.

Damn shame not single a word of it was fact.

7. Because the Big Easy is (was)

full of African Americans -- so who care? (according to Rethug playbook)

8. WannaJumpMyScooter got Karl on the run

[Lefty48197]

10. He's trying to convince Americans that the GOP would do a good job

at rebuilding New Orleans, IF a disaster were to strike.

11. They've already forgotten about Katrina and it's victims.
