    So there was no anti gun message in any of that? I know there wasn't an anti racism message in there when it appears it was a factor.

    I know quite a bit what are they missing?

    - - - Updated - - -

    The state government and the local government was run by Democrats. What was the Bush administration failure?

    Every time they get called out on their BS they change their argument. It gets tiring too often.

    No just calling out the redundant pathetic BS from RWers.

    Got some quotes? And what did Obama say to the people on the Mississippi gulf coast who got hit worse than New Orleans? I already know he didn't have anything to say to us in Alabama.

    This thread and posts complaining about only Pres Obama visiting New Orleans is self evident. Speaking of complaining, how about how MS took some of the reconstruction money and gave it to casinos and the wealthy home owners instead of the people that actually lost their homes.

    Are you agreeing this is all about race with him? Because I said nothing about visiting whites in Galveston. Furthermore, Galveston isn't even half white.

    What about Hurricane Andrew? Camille?

    Not just that, but they also shot at helicopters that were trying to help. They wanted it to be a war zone, they didn't want peace. Crime skyrocketed in cities where many of them fled to as well.

    I understand the need to continue moving the fence. But it's just getting sad.

    No, he's not saying anything like obama. He's not visiting just the black neighborhoods either. Slick Willie is also making a visit.

    It would be nice since apparently a trip down there was the #1 priority. I visited New Orleans once in 1996 and it was a dump then, and a dump now.

    I know the left continually harps about Bush and blames him for most of the things that have happened under Obama but Bush is no longer the President. He is a private citizen not an elected official. But I do wonder why Bush would even bother going down there when it's just going to stir up a bunch of old (*)(*)(*)(*).

    Well Pres Bush Jr is in news hanging out with a bunch of black children dancing to boot. RWers continually reset the boundaries of pathetic complaints.

    The Bush failure was a democratic talking point that has been parroted for a decade. It holds as much meaning to most people as "hands up don't shoot." Both are based on blatant lies.

    Got a link for that?

    So those weren't destructive enough to warrant a visit or do you just not have an answer?

    So anyways, back to the topic... What makes New Orleans so special? I'm sure it's not the demographic of 60% blacks, Obama would never show favoritism. Why didn't he visit the higher damaged places?

    Also, why do you think the white households make twice the income of black households over there? And the whites only make up 30%.

    The people that live there know. After a hundred years of being run by Democrats, they elected Jindal as gov. Nagin ran away during Katrina. Now Nagin's in prison.
