How the fuck is bush going to "help" the iraqi's when he can't even help his own country. Big daddy bush has to go in and clean up the mess with clinton eh?<BR/>I can't watch tv anymore. I am so upset and sad about what happened and the lack of action taken sooner in the disaster. <BR/>What is bush going to do to help assist these people in getting new jobs, money and building a new life while they "rebuild" the devastated states in the south?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11829619.post-1125685603724830562005-09-02T20:26:00.000+02:002005-09-02T20:26:00.000+02:00Beamis, you are more than welcome to promote your ...Beamis, you are more than welcome to promote your blog here.<BR/><BR/>For Beamis' very interesting take on New Orleans, please see http://pinyonpine.blogspot.com/2005/08/let-things-happen-way-nature-intended.htmlMonkey's Maxhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02682860045391115600noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11829619.post-1125684160781393132005-09-02T20:02:00.001+02:002005-09-02T20:02:00.001+02:00This comment has been removed by a blog administrator.beamishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03573400877018313541noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11829619.post-1125684149168194802005-09-02T20:02:00.000+02:002005-09-02T20:02:00.000+02:00New Orleans should have never been artificially pr...New Orleans should have never been artificially preserved with tax money stolen from other states. Without federal meddling with an extremely complex and elaborate river delta ecosystem New Orleans would have died a natural death long ago (early 20th century), with far less devastation and loss of life. <BR/><BR/>I blame the Imperial rulers in DC for this fiasco.
