Most of you don't care. I knew that. You only care when it's a Democrat. And you are only faking that you care in hopes of winning over some stupid religious person who actually does care.

Migrants Lead Florida's post-Ian Clean-up, Despite DeSantis
Weeks after the Florida governor staged a brazen stunt over migration, migrants are rebuilding his statetime.com
You mean the guy who is now going to use illegal migrants to clean up Florida after Hurrican Ian? THe guy who lied to refugees and mislead them to Martha's Vinyard? Dude, he should be in jail.
Did you see him kissing Biden's ass yesterday? Sucking up for some of that Federal Money?
when did I say anyone was barred from office for having an abortion? Dems should be barred for being dembots, not for abortions.
Do you not know that Bush's response to the hurricane in Florida the year before Katrina, Bush rolled out the Federal Government red carpet for those white people in Florida. The blacks in New Orleans? Not so much.
There are more then just white people that live in FL...actually a lot of hispanics and african-americans as well....actually they make up nearly half the population
It's not that these conservatives are incompetent or stupid. When their interests are at stake, they can be very efficient. Consider when Hurricane Charley hit Jeb Bush's state - a year earlier than Katrina - on the second weekend of August, 2004, just months before the elections. The White House website notes:
All of this aid was vitally important to Bush family political fortunes in the upcoming election of 2004. Disaster relief checks were in the mail within a week. In just the first thirteen days after Hurricane Charley hit Florida, the White House web site notes that the Bush administration had succeeded in:
That, of course, was for a Republican State, with a Republican governor, the crony brother of the President. Republicans needed to act like they cared about governing, because they wanted people to vote for them three months later.
Yeah, Republican Govs are far better prepared, and know how to handle a crisis like a hurricane.It's not that these conservatives are incompetent or stupid.

Consider when Hurricane Charley hit Jeb Bush's state - a year earlier than Katrina - on the second weekend of August, 2004, just months before the elections. The White House website notes:
As of noon Monday [the day after the hurricane left], in response to Hurricane Frances, FEMA and other Federal response agencies have taken the following actions:

But now, with no election looming and with death stalking a Democratic State with a Democratic Governor unrelated to the President, we once again see the Reagan philosophy held ascendant. Bush's call to action? "Send cash to the Red Cross." One of those "thousand points of light" non-governmental organizations his father told us about.
"You Can't Govern if You Don't Believe in Government"
In a May 25, 2001 interview, Grover Norquist told National Public Radio's Mara Liasson, "I don't want to abolish government. I simply want to reduce it to the size where I can drag it into the bathroom and drown it in the bathtub." Norquist got his wish.www.thomhartmann.com

Bush did the same thing,...the issue is the total lack of preparedness by the state and local Govt.You can white wash it all you want. You see the difference between how Bush helped FL 3 months before a midterm Louisiana a year later. Pathetic and obvious.
Blame Blanco
Did Louisiana governor Kathleen Blanco decline a request to declare an emergency?
I remember you lied about this woman and tried to put it all on her. Same way you did to the Flint Mayor during the Flint water crisis. You guys are such obvious liars. Can't help yourselves.
www.nbcnews.com
Blanco has said she asked Bush on Aug. 29, the day of Katrina's landfall, "for everything you've got," requesting 40,000 troops on Aug. 31. The president deployed 7,000 active-duty troops on Sept. 3.
Sure. You drove out all of the Democratic voters. Of course a Republican won the next election.Bush did the same thing,...the issue is the total lack of preparedness by the state and local Govt.
Agreed Gov Bush was way better then Blanco...she even recognized that, the people of LA did as well...and elected a Republican to succeed her
How much blame does Gov. Blanco deserve?
The former head of FEMA, Michael Brown, recently blamed much of the failed response to Katrina on the governor of Louisiana, Kathleen Blanco. NBC Senior Investigative Correspondent Lisa Myers takes a hard look at Governor Blanco's performance.
"I believe we are prepared," she said in Jefferson Parish on Aug. 27. "That's the one thing that I've always been able to brag about."
Though experts had warned it would take 48 hours to evacuate New Orleans, Blanco did not order a mandatory evacuation that Saturday.
"We're going to pray that the impact will soften," she said.
Blanco and the mayor waited until Sunday, Aug. 28 — only 20 hours before Katrina came ashore — to order a mandatory evacuation, the first of what disaster experts and Louisiana insiders say were serious mistakes by the governor.
"It certainly appeared that there was a lot of indecisiveness exhibited by the governor in the early stages of the disaster," says Louisiana State Democratic Senator Donald Cravins.
A key criticism: the governor's slowness in requesting federal troops. She told the president she needed help, but it wasn't until Wednesday, Aug. 31 that she specifically asked for 40,000 troops.
That day, in a whispered conversation with her staff caught on camera, the governor appears to second-guess herself.
"I really need to call for the military," Blanco tells an aide.
"And I should have started that in the first call," Blanco adds.
Another key mistake, experts say, was Blanco's lateness in getting the Louisiana National Guard, which she commands, on the streets to try to establish security.
"It would have been better if it had happened sooner," says Jane Bullock, a former FEMA official during the Clinton administration.
yeah Blanco was up for re-election and tried to blame a lot of her mistakes on Bush. we know that.
who drove them out???? where too? It's certainly true the Bush Admin had to do a lot of the evauations....after the fact, because Blanco and the Dem Mayor failed on the front in.;...is that what you mean?
We all got some of those evacuees. That's okay. They were Democratic voters. Florida got some, Texas got some, etc.
Had the Dem Gov and Mayor done their jobs, they might not of had to leave the state after the fact.
BTW, we exposed your bullshit about Hershey being repentant for the things he has done. Because last week he got caught in a lie. You can't be sorry for what you did and then keep lying about it. Comes off as not sincere.
1) what lie?
Hershel is still lying. So if he asked his lord for forgiveness for beating women and making them get abortions, has he also asked for forgiveness for lying?
He also pressured MORE THAN ONE woman to get an abortion.
