Guest Felonies! Report post Posted August 27, 2006 That our government is a bureaucratic clusterfuck at the federal, state, and city levels?

snuffbox 0 Report post Posted August 27, 2006 EDIT: Okay, yeah, I know you were being witty and all, but honestly, Kanye West couldn't relate to them any more than I could. Granted, Kanye grew up in far more comfortable conditions than the poverty-level people who suffered worst from Katrina, and therefore couldnt exactly 'relate' to them...but he was the ONLY person, with the attention of the whole country, to stand up, ignore PCness, and let the Bush Administartion know in terms they might be able to understand that they were doing a tragic and embarassing job in New Orleans. And for that, he was ridiculed by everyone else in this country who are plainly too ignorant to know this was alot more than just, 'why dint they just get in there cars and get outta there?'

Guest Felonies! Report post Posted August 27, 2006 I was ridiculing him more for "they're coming to shoot us!" than anything else, but I see what you're saying. I mean, it's not like he didn't oversimplify the issue at hand as well. Anyway, I've also learned that New Orleans wasn't really the 24-hour party I thought it had been. Seems like most of it kinda sucks. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Princess Leena Report post Posted August 27, 2006 That this will happen again in the New Orleans area in the next 50 years. And people will cry "Why didn't we listen!". And blame whatever robot is our president. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

KingPK 0 Report post Posted August 27, 2006 What have we learned? Let the wrong answers begin! Don't build a major city in the equivalent of a giant soup bowl and surround it by levees that are rarely maintained? It doesn't matter how many warnings you put out, people are either stupid enough to try and ride a storm out or just unable to leave for whatever reason? Ray Nagin loves the taste of his own foot?

Yeah..those silly french.. And whether or not you belive in global warming and all that jazz, theres indisputable proof that the sea level is rising which means NOLA is screwed permanently in a couple hundred years anyway just like a lot of major coastal cities.

snuffbox 0 Report post Posted August 27, 2006 I think this is exactly what Kotz anticipated. Another stupid town - Baltimore...their Inner Harbor was flooded by a hurricane too. We need more inland harbor cities. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest InuYasha Report post Posted August 28, 2006 So is NO a chocolate city yet? Is Ray Nagin ever likely to be elected Governor of LA?

Art Sandusky 0 Report post Posted August 29, 2006 I always wondered how that dude in the picture with the President and the guitar felt about the situation if he'd been watching or listening to the news on the way to the event.
