Just Shut Up!

I really wish the American left would think. I know that is probably wishful thinking but oh well. Hurricane Katrina has been making headlines all over the place since it made land fall last week. The problem is "civil rights activists" such as Jesse Jackson are putting the blame on non other than Pres. Bush. That's right, they don't blame the Mayor of New Orleans (a Black Democrat) or the Governor of Louisiana (a fellow democrat) for the bad decisions such as NOT using a large fleet of Public School buses (Enough to evacuate the entire population of the people sent to the superdome AND the convention center in two trips) to evacuate the remains of the City. Instead they wasted all the time and used some of the buses (the rest are now under water having never been used) to bring people to the Superdome which, up until a few days ago, was a lawless area full of trash, human waste, murders and crime that the local law enforcement personnel would not even go into because of the safety risk. They did not even get all of the people into the Superdome, mostly because the people would not leave, in which case they should have been brought out by force. None of this is the President's fault. President Bush does not control the Public School bus fleet of New Orleans. That would be the Mayor's call. The fact that most of New Orleans poor are black does is not the President's fault. The levees had just been repaired prior to this hurricane. President Bush is not in charge of the recovery effort. That would be the Mayor and Governor's role, especially the Governor. What have we heard from the governor lately? Anything? The governor should be the one directing this whole operation, like we have seen Jeb Bush do in the past. FEMA is not in charge of the recovery effort either; aid is being with-held by the Governor so that people will leave the superdome and convention center. Arianna Huffington (who is a jerk) says this about the current blame situation "At the same time the administration is putting Karl Rove's "pin-the-blame-on-the-locals" plan into effect , President Bush told reporters gathered at a cabinet meeting today, "I think that one of the things that people want us to do here is play a blame game. We've got to solve problems. We're problem solvers. There will be ample time for people to figure out what went right and what went wrong. What I'm interested in is helping save lives." She even goes on to disagree with Bill Clinton “Our government failed those people in the beginning," said Bill Clinton. "And I personally believe there should be a serious analysis of it...but I don't think we should do it now. I think that in a few weeks, we should have some sort of Katrina commission. It should be bipartisan, non-partisan, whatever..." Exactly: "Whatever." As in: Who gives a crap, because it will have about the same impact as all these too-long-after-the-fact commissions have -- next to none." If you want to read the rest be careful, you may get sick. The lady is obviously has a logic problem. I am almost done reading Yahoo news as long as it continues to let people like Huffington and Hillary R. Clinton blog for free there.
