This problem in New Orleans (and MS) is not so much an indictment of the
government action and/or inaction but an indictment on the liberal "war on
poverty." The city of New Orleans has a Democrat leader, the State of
Louisiana has a Democratic governor. The war on poverty is a total failure
in the state of Louisiana...under DEMOCRAT LEADERSHIP. No? Then why are
there so many "poor" in New Orleans (70% below "poverty level)? It
certainly isn't from "Republican obstructionism" because all of the leaders
are Democrats. It's because the "poor" are the cash cow of the Democratic
party. Democrats get their glory from counting the number of people they
are helping. Republicans get their glory from the number of people who NO
LONGER NEED THEIR HELP.

Give a man a fish (welfare check, WIC, food stamps...) and he'll eat for a
day (and come back for more tomorrow, vote for you on election day and teach
his children the tricks of the trade).
Teach a man to fish (teach him skills, give him a meaningful job, teach him
accountability) and he'll have food for a lifetime and teach it to his
children.

Sounds absolutely great and the way things should be. The news groups
always
home in on the lowest common denominator on any event like this, often
completely missing the untiring selfless commitment by many people who,
like
you say, will never be known.

Theres many burning questions George Bush must answer, to the way this
disaster was dealt with. Theres already been one resignation.. whether he
was a scapegoat or actually directly responsible for "inefficiancy" i dont
know but this will not go away..
