Wow, this time Nagin acted. He is not among the undeucable mentally retarded, but is among the educable mentally retarded.
The Democrats may drum him out of the corps for ordering evacuation this time and seemingly adeptly providing buses for transportation rather than keeping them immobilized in an area that would flood. After all, it would have been a coup to have visible devastation and wrongfully blame the effects of the storm on Bush again. During Katrina the Democrat Governor refused to allow the feds to enter and help until late in the game, and the Democrat Mayor of New Orleans, Nagin, really screwed up, compounding the damage the storm inflicted, and causing many deaths.
Well, the state did oust their culpable Democrat governor, who had rejected federal requests to enter the State and provide aid during the Katrina era. But the "chocolate city" as Mayor Nagin so charmingly designates it, kept its Mayor Nagin, the one who presided over the previous disaster, and Nagin wasn't even indicted for criminal negligence. What a City.
If the remainder of the country pays the tab for "rebuilding New Orleans" again, it's a tribute to our stupidity. They live in an area, where maintaining a permanent settlement is untenable. They have a "culture" there that caused communities that had received "refugees" from Katrina to experience a remarkably significant increase in their crime rates.
What will be the political fallout of moving the indigents that constitute a sizable portion of this community to other locales, where they may provide a balance of votes in close contests so that the Democrats might carry marginal states? Even the fates seem to be conspiring to help the Democrats, and the Messiah Obama.
How will it play in Sheboygan?
As they say regarding the roulette wheel, watch the ball. Round and round and round she goes, and where she stops nobody knows.
And down the backstretch, it's "Supervening Variables" in front by a nose.
Let's hope that these unfortunate people are spared another insult inflicted by Mother Nature. One natural debacle in a generation is enough. Two are too much to countenance. It's very unsettling. but the initial decision to rebuild in the same area, defies reason. It's an unwise risk to take, and to take it repeatedly ... Why be complicit and place people in such a situation again? The government is a bad in loco parentis as it has no heart and no care, and instead of making a wrenching decision and acting wisely, has compounded the distress that has entered the lives of these people. They'll wear out emotionally with continuing displacements.
