The "breaking of the levees and the tens of thousands of deaths" was
predicted precisely on NPR radio just days before Katerina made
landfall.

The prediction was NOT unique.

Bush, whose family owns a residence in the oil refining center of Belle
Chase immeadiately alongside the river and levees, chose, in lieu of
presiding over and mobilizing National Guard, all available
transportation outifts, Army Corps of Engineers, etc., he went to
Arizona to push "Social Security."

Pretty much seems to me to be a local issue. So what was the Dem
Machine in Nawlins doing? Besides stealing from the People and keeping
the ghettos going?

"Pax Americana is a philosophy. Hardly an empire.
Making sure other people play nice and dont kill each other (and us)
off in job lots is hardly empire building, particularly when you give
them self determination under "play nice" rules.

Think of it as having your older brother knock the **** out of you
for torturing the cat." Gunner
