Hey did you keep power through the storm?
I went into NOLA yesterday to check on the house - everything OK but I barely got there. I10 was closed at Grammercy, I took 61 in but at times only one lane was drivable and even then it had 6" to 1 foot of water in it. Was afraid I might wind up stranded, I had no idea Isaac was still pounding St Charles and St John that bad, I should have stayed in BR. On the way back I played it safe, crossed the river at Hale Boggs, took 3127 and then crossed back at the Sunshine.
EDIT: I saw thousands of acres of sugar cane pushed over to 45 degree angles or lower.
Yep, kept power & Cox... its a first! I have my elderly neighbor staying with us till her power gets back online... poor thing is in her eighties. Got a full house, daughter and her boyfriend, son, neigbor and ex-wife..
Woo ho!!
So why did Jindal beg for federal relief?
There are no greiving families to console. The ones that got flooded were in localities that were too stupid to build their local flood control embankments properly. Here is a clue.. Don't build in obvious flood zones.
Go fuck yourself
That's exceptionally lucky! You look at an Entergy outage map and seems like 90% of the city is without power.What he said. ^

I'm sure he cares. I don't know anyone who could go to a disaster zone and not have compassion for people who have to deal with the fallout.
I have family in Colorado Springs. obama landed, took a few photo ops and left. Whatever compassion he showed was a statement written by someone else and read off the teleprompter.
I don't really see how your having family in Colorado Springs negates the fact that Obama actually met with victims and their families.
I bought one in flood zone B. Its fully insured against floods.Go fuck yourself
Did you build a house in a flood zone?
What is your point? That people shouldn't build where natural disasters occur? Where do you live?Do you encourage people that build in flood zones?
There is a REASON they call them FLOOD zones. That makes you angry?
I was actually referring to Romney, but I think this show we really aren't that different, both sides have partisan hacks who will condemn the other guy no matter what he does.Did he gather with local leaders, shake hands, wear hardhats, look at plans for re-construction and point to somewhere off camera like in a cheap Political Ad?
Simply showing up in a Hurricane zone doesn't mean you "care".

What on Earth does this have to do with anything I said... anyway, I'm fortunate and the exception rather than the rule.. there are tens of thousands affected, many in a life changing way.

I actually live on a 35 ft boat when I'm not guarding this motel. Consequently I don't worry about floods.
We have people that live in river flood plains in Washington. We have a word for them... "stupid".
white republicans really wana talk about response time with people in NO. They really wanted to just let blacks die, otherwise Bush adminstration would have been there earlier.
Are you always this stupid or just practicing?
Idiot..........

He didn't meet with victims and their families. He landed, took some photos, read a prepared statement off a teleprompter and left. Had I not had family in Colorado Springs to tell me what actually happened, I might have believed the government propaganda that obama actually met with victims and their families.

Then what took bush so long?

So now Obama will be visting N.O. to survey the damage . . . on Monday. A Tulane University political science professor, Brian Box said ""Since he is not currently a government official, he has no assistance to offer, and all he can do is get in the way (especially with his large entourage/Secret Service and by diverting local law enforcement attention away from recovery)," said Brian Brox, a political scientist at Tulane University. " I understand Jindal's offer and Romney's acceptance (this will allow Romney to get some optics of doing the kind of chief executive things we expect presidents to do), but I would think the best possible outcome of this visit would be that he just doesn't get in the way."

I wonder just how large Rom's "entourage" will be? I've seen these in the past and they amount to just a couple of vehicles.

I think his point is that Jindal has no problem sticking his hand out for that federal pork when it suits him.
But you're right- it had nothing to do with your post.
