I'm not the one looking for photo ops with 49 seconds of Play Doh.
How childish. Just where did you get this "49 seconds" thing from anyway?
And I'm DAMN sure not the one trying to "score brownie points" with a thread that doesn't even bother to MENTION anyone's suffering, doesn't even bother to MENTION a flooding disaster, doesn't even bother to MENTION the state of Louisiana in its schoolyard-juvenile quest to jump on the backs of those victims to score political points in what he thinks is some kind of football game, with flood victims as the football.
Cry me a fucking river.
I was a junior in high school in 2005, the year Katrina hit. It wasn't more than a week later that there was a sudden influx of people coming to my hometown from the flood ravaged areas in Baton Rouge and places where the broken levees had blown everything downstream away. I would come to school in the morning and eat breakfast. It wasn't hard to pick them out of the hundreds of students flooding into the cavernous cafeteria I ate in. The looks of sorrow and the weight of broken lives on their faces wasn't hard to miss.
My current pastor went down there in 2008 to help rebuild homes in those areas and witness to people as he went about it. He told us all about the impact it had on him, and how that all brought the people he met closer to God.
Go read the title of this thread. It's entirely about what politician "scored brownie poit's [sic] against what other politician -- while the victims washed out of their homes can go sit on a tack. That's what this is about, and that's ALL this has ever been about
Wrong. There are people out there, that despite their politics and obvious flaws, who at a time like this are moved to help the less fortunate. The simple act of paying attention has done worlds of good for them.
So spare me your contrived bullshit. I can see right through it.
Spare me your false sense of conviction and compassion. I can see right through it.
