Is that what they are calling the homeless in New Orleans now?

How long have the Democrats been in control of that city? You'd think it would be a socialist utopia by now.

You know I'm right.

New Orleans is a clusterfuck. Plenty of blame to go around for both parties as far as I'm concerned.

There are still real people out there that are homeless in that city (more than before the disaster) and after TWO years they are still rebuilding? WTF?

this is true...I sell houses to people in this area and most of them are paying cash due to road home.  Most of the people that I deal with are getting homes that are twice as big and twice as nice as the duk stained homes that got smashed up in the storm.  They have basically been given gifts.  They are just going to complain, no matter what the government does.  "here is a free house"...."that is it?  I am a victim, I lost everything..."yada yada yada...

Calm down, my comment was an attempt to be whitty.

Branding me racist is a pretty big claim, and not the one to be made by a mod without any evidence.

I assume you have evidence, yah slag...

Hint: you don't usually need to tell someone to calm down when they end their comment with the cheesy smiley ;)  There's a real good chance that the post was messing around, joking, poking fun, etc etc...

A certain portion of the blame lies with the victims themselves.. Abusing US taxpayer money, commiting crimes in sheltering cities. Not leaving when warned.

Of course one should feel sympathy, but look at these people. Take a long, fucking look.

They prefer viagra, oxycotin, oil, meth. Just look at Rush.

Didn't Bush belong to some society called "Skull and Bones"?

True, the line has to be drawn somewhere, the "victims" have some level of responsibility. It's just that no-one in the mainstream has the balls to say it.

Um... what neocons YOU been associating with?  :P

Last time I checked it was liberals that were the baby killers. Republicans only kill durka durka mohammed jihad diaper heads (for oil).  :)

The best approach for the administration immediately after the levees broke was to rebuild what was reasonable to do and let the rest go back to nature.  It would've been much easier than the rhetoric that is still floating around.
Eminent domain, buy out the property and relocate people to safer areas of New Orleans.

Why rebuild in an area that is below sea level and prone to hurricanes?

Politics and the harsh reality of life has never gone hand in hand.
