People like to dump it on Bush as if it's his fault. Sorry to say, but it wasn't. No one could of been prepared for this type of disaster, no one. (ie Katrina)Bush called New Orleans Governor and asked if they needed assistant and she said, "no, we have it under controll". He told her if she finds they do need help to let him know, they would be on stand by. So let's dump the fault where it is due.
Mayor of New Orleans: The Mayor chose to leave school buses in the low lands while his city flooded.
Americans poured out their hearts and souls to help the people of New Orleans after Katrina. The US government has thrown all sorts of money at this city in efforts to not only rebuild but also rejuvenate a city that still has time and money for Mardi Gras. While those of New Orleans scammed their way through FEMA to make out with a LOT of money for those who truly need it.
Any sense of justice would question decisions made by the Governor on down to Mayor Nagin - decisions that turned away an Amtrak train that could hold up to 1,000 people for evacuation. A City who was offered help by President Bush before Katrina struck and New Orleans Governor assured people they didn't need it. A City that couldn't articulate what they needed after Katrina struck. Police officers who instead of stopping looters, joined them. A City out of control who still hasn't learned.
So let's dump the fault where it is due.

First off widget, I'm not a DUDE, I'm all women.
Bush called into the Governor of LA to send in help. The Governor of LA said NO they can handle it. I don't care what anyone feels or thinks the President should of or could of done, without the Governor of LA specifically asking for help the President will not go in. He asked and was told NO. What of that you don't understand?
People were warned days before the hurricane hit to get out. They did not heed the warnings. They thought they could ride it out like they did hurricane Camelle from back in the 60s. They thought wrong. It's their own fault. Not the President. They were warned they may pay the consequences if they remain. They did not heed the warnings. I don't care if they didn't have a car or are old, they could of walked across that bridge to the other side within that 3 or more days time to get out. I would of carried my sick grandmother on my back to get out or in a kids wagon if it meant to save my life or her life. The city should have emergency plans set in these type of emergencies. It's their responsibility not the Presidents. They should of known how to get hospital patients shuttled out, not leave their constituates behind while their electives took off without making sure all were out. Their own electives failed them, not the President.
After the hurricane, rescue mission began. Coast Guard was sent in. This is a military team, not a civilian team. It takes a few days to organize a rescue mission. It's not an overnight mission. Obviously you have no experiance with the military or you might not feel the same. If you do, then you are misquided in your thoughts on the Presidents responsibilities.
I don't know what you people think but after many hurricanes have come through Pensacola FL we didn't yell for a President to send in troops to help us. And trust me, hurricane Ivan and Dennis wiped Pensacola FL out. Not as bad as Katrina but it looked like a bomb went off here. Many of us could not even return to our homes or many still to this day do not have their homes. Many in tents or moved to another city or state. It took over a year for my house repairs to be finished. For a month we were living out of a hotel in another city. Upon our return we had my mother, sister and nieces and nephews here with us until they could return home.
It's not the Presidents responsibility to rescue us or give us back what we lose in natural disasters. That is what insurance is for and what your elected State Governors, Mayors, Representatives are for. Maybe you should put the blame where it is due. Back onto LA elected officials and Representatives.
And just because the President flew over LA doesn't make him a bad person. You people need to come off your band wagon and get a real clue. LA electives are to blame for the lack of help. They didn't know who to contact obviously. They failed their own people, not the President. The President called in advance, 2 days prior, to send in help. He was told no. Not maybe, not I will think about it, not let me get back with you, not no but maybe later, but "No". Then the electives try to put the blame on the President to cover their own asses. Sad but true.

The reason why Florida got Fed Funds quickly is because Florida has dealt with hurricanes for many years in our paths. Not because of the President being his kin. And Jeb Bush knows his job and responsibilities unlike those in LA. Clearly that makes a big difference too. Jeb Bush and our elected Representitives, for our Florida Sunshine State, have emergency plans already set incase of emergencies and drastic times.
From closely watching tv during Katrina, it was made clear LA Governor, Mayor and Representivies didn't. Now they are playing the blame game unto others instead of themselves.
Like any human being, I'm sure President Bush was in shock over 9/11.
I could go into why ex-Pres. Clinton could be held partially accountable for 9/11 happening but it would cause an out right war here.
Remember during Clintons term, secret ops were in place to take Osama out, they were waiting on command by Madam Albrieght(sp) and such and were told to abort because they were unsure if civillians were inside the building where Osama Bin Laudin was. Because of this one action, Clintons own advisors, 9/11 took place. Clintons informants were even told in advance about 9/11 but did not act on it. Sadly Pres. Bush knew nothing of it. And sadly everyone wants to point the finger at Pres. Bush as if it's his fault. All I can do is shake my head at those who clearly don't look at the truth.
I pray Hillary Clinton never holds Pres. office. Mrs. ex-Pres. Clinton and Mr. Clinton already ruined our Health Care. They held more scandels than any other Pres. in office in record history.

I could go into why ex-Pres. Clinton could be held partially accountable for 9/11 happening but it would cause an out right war here.
Remember during Clintons term, secret ops were in place to take Osama out, they were waiting on command by Madam Albrieght(sp) and such and were told to abort because they were unsure if civillians were inside the building where Osama Bin Laudin was. Because of this one action, Clintons own advisors, 9/11 took place. Clintons informants were even told in advance about 9/11 but did not act on it. Sadly Pres. Bush knew nothing of it. And sadly everyone wants to point the finger at Pres. Bush as if it's his fault. All I can do is shake my head at those who clearly don't look at the truth.
I pray Hillary Clinton never holds Pres. office. Mrs. ex-Pres. Clinton and Mr. Clinton already ruined our Health Care. They held more scandels than any other Pres. in office in record history.

"you really should join the army and see the world"
THIS is what I'm posting about widget, it's absurd for you to make comments like that and also the ultimate in patronization to a female.
You have two daughters now, this isn't the 70's anymore when that type of ignorant comment will fly at least around some of us early feminists.

Actually, I find it utterly fascinating that Widget thinks I have only been in Maine.... he has no knowledge of where I have and have not traveled.... and he just makes that judgment call, it's almost as interesting as someone that was 39 years old last year or so,( he said this in relation to his adopting two little girls) having served in Vietnam....

Mrs sure makes one wonder doesn't it?
I wanted to post this because it's written by an a journalist who obviously
does not support Bush or the war
, but what's more important is that despite that, he sees the dangers of what Pelosi is proposing.
I think this should be required reading for every voting american with their corn flakes, he tells it exactly like it is, every single crack in Pelosi's 'mad' strategy
and he doesn't drag it out, he's short and to the point which is something hard for me and I admire in others.
I don't have to agree with all that he says but I cannot deny he's dead-on regarding the consequences, which is WHY it's so important that we all think critically and not just TOE THE PARTY LINE. If you don't see what's happening in Washington, if you don't see that this is a clear partisan effort on the part of Pelosi to have the Dems capitalize on the anti-war sentiment to gain control in the next elections, you probably didn't learn what you should have in high school which is where critical thinking process should emerge and take hold in your life. We are one of if not the most educated populations/countries in this world, we should know better than to let this debacle happen in Washington. The decision regarding Iraq should rise and fall upon the large umbrella of potential consequences and not elections at home.
War deadline is worst strategy
By Michael Goodwin
Saturday, March 17, 2007
With their plan to set a deadline for pulling our troops out of Iraq, Democrats in Congress are proving the wisdom of an old maxim:
Nothing is so bad that it can’t be made worse.
The war is a disaster and President Bush has been a lousy commander in chief, with the disgraceful treatment of wounded warriors the latest proof. The public is sick of the mess and wants the war to end yesterday.
Voter disgust gave Democrats their midterm election victories. But now that they have power, Dems are stumped about how to turn anti-Bush slogans into policy. After weeks of fiddling around with various pieces of legislation and resolutions, their leaders have hit on something the party is rallying around.
Unfortunately, the solution they’ve settled on — binding legislation to pull all combat troops from Iraq by March 31, 2008 — is the worst one possible.
Think of the impact around the world. If you’re the enemy, you know you’ve won — all you have to do is wait for us to ship out. If you’re one of our G.I.s, you’re being told to keep risking your life, but however it turns out, we’re bringing you home on an arbitrary schedule. If you’re an Iraqi civilian friendly to us, we’re leaving you to the wolves.
If you’re the nut job president of Iran, whoopee, you’ve driven the Great Satan off the battlefield. If you’re Osama bin Laden, you raise a glass of camel pee to toast a victory over the infidels. And if you’re one of our allies in Europe or Asia, you wonder what the hell is going on in America.
Like I said, this “solution” takes a bad situation and makes it worse.
Ultimately, the legislation would come to nothing because Bush has promised to veto it. No doubt that’s partially why some Dems are hedging their bets. Sen. Hillary Clinton, who had advocated a cap on troops and opposed a deadline, says now she supports the new plan but insists it really isn’t a deadline, despite what Majority Leader Harry Reid says.
“It’s a goal, it’s not a hard deadline, it’s a goal,” Clinton told The New York Times. “We’re just trying to create some pressure on the president. That’s the whole point here.”
She better tell that to Reid and House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, who wants to pull the troops out by the end of this year. If Clinton votes for any deadline when the Senate bill comes up next week, she’ll be for it, no matter how she tortures the meaning of “is.” Surely she doesn’t want to go down the road of “I voted for it, but I was really against it.” A similar whopper about her 2002 vote supporting the invasion isn’t exactly a best seller on the campaign trail.
Therein lies the Dems’ dilemma, especially those with White House ambitions. The war is off the tracks and Bush won’t listen to reason. Troop requirements for his surge are growing beyond the promised 21,500, and our new commander says even more may be needed, and for a long time. Even then there is no guarantee Iraqis will choose reconciliation over slaughter, or that their government will be more than a front for warlords.
All of which means there are no good answers in Iraq or at home. There are only bad ones, and worse ones. Then there is the worst of all — a fixed deadline for withdrawal.

The first lottery after the reinstitution of the draft lottery was held on December 1, 1969, at Selective Service National Headquarters in Washington, D.C. This event determined the order of call for induction during calendar year 1970.
That would have been for induction 37 yrs ago.
Most folks in theater in 1970 and later were wearing Jungle Boots.

you know Widget, I am not one that needs to resort to emotion or lies to prove my points. I don't have the posts or emails where you said you were 39, but I guarantee that there are other people that remember you saying that.
Here is what I would like to see though.... why is it that you simply can not come into this thread and talk like everyone else? It is your way or the damn highway... and if I don't have that luxury why should you?
You are blantantly disrespectful and quite frankly an assbite in how you speak to people.....
everyone I have ever met that lives in Costa Rica is nothing more than a blowhard trustfund baby that can't even begin to think or survive in any surrounding other than the cocoon of trustfund living which quite frankly isn't the reality for most people --
it is completely funny to me that those that don't have to , or know how to work love to tell others how to do so....
so see, Widget, it's very easy to draw conclusions based on emperical evidence isn't it?
