Hey - this post isn't about BushBashing over the War in Iraq, nor is it about fixing the blame on Local, State, of Feds -
it's about being compassonate and supportive of American Citizens who are desparate and in need.

BBond being on the list is the biggest hit you can make as a disqualifier ?
It's so easy for some to ridicule Dave, but Dave helped a rescue team get into the area, who else here did that ? I didn't - wasn't close enough.

I don't care what anyone has posted on Iraq - this is Support for those victims in the entire Gulf Coast all the way accross and into Alabama,
and North several hunderd miles inland as well.
The devastated area is bigger than all the geographical area of some entire states, and some countries.
The focus has been so much on New Orleans, because there are so many in such a small strike zone of an even bigger strike area.

If you're on the list, it's only because I saw support for the victims, not because they were 'Bashing Bush'.

If you feel slighted because of your omission - I didn't go on a search to evaluate each persons input on a merit basis,
it was just a quick recall off the top, their support was for victims, and not driven as a revenge against incompetent Polititians.

Plenty of blame for all, plenty of time to point fingers and fix the blame later . . right now Americans are still dying because time is running out.

Someone was callous enough to make the comment 'People don't just die in 4 days because of no food' -
I got news for them, babies do . . and people without critical medical care do.

PS - If you think you don't deserve to be on the Captn's Call, I'll be glad to delete the reference. Think you belong, but not included ? We'll see.

IF this is the case, edit you comments to make them lay blame equally rather than only bash bush. Feel free to add my name to you list if you wish. I have yet to give any goverment agency a pass on this mess.

Pity, you used to be reasoned. As one of the people on the Captain's list, I challenge you to show how I think "Bush is solely responsable for this disaster" and have denied that "state and local have their fair share of blame". This will be amusing since I've explicitly said there was poor performance on all levels. The things that have so many of us angry are the usual Bush fluffers refusing to acknowledge BushCo did anything wrong, and, as the good Captain points out, the callous, often hateful blame-the-victim mentality of many of those same people.

Kudos to CaptnKirk. And please extend my best wishes and respect to your son as well.
I was not challedging his list, only his statement that I quoted. There are members of his list that I do not think should be there, but I dont think it would be the right thing to do. However what I quoted is quite clear.

I pass the challedge back to you and and ask you where I have given a pass to the feds.

I expect to being lots of crickets tonight.
Running from your own words? Let's review what you said: "So basically you give a thumbs up to anyone who thinks that Bush is solely responsable for this disaster and thumbs down to anyone who says state and local have their fair share of blame. " As I said before, I challenge you to reconcile this statement -- your exact words -- with the fact that I did not suggest Bush was solely responsible, and, contrary to the last half of your sentence, I explicitly said state and local officials have performed poorly. Your claim is simply, factually wrong, an empty, partisan straw man used to attack instead of contributing any reasoned commentary.

Also, for the record, I did not state that you personally gave a pass to the feds. I did, however, mention "the usual Bush fluffers refusing to acknowledge BushCo did anything wrong". You could easily demonstrate you are not one of those "Bush fluffers" by pointing us to comments you've made critical of the Bush's handling of this disaster. Any commernts. Any at all?

I cannot beleive, although I witness it in post after post, the lack of compassion and/or understanding of so many of the participants.

I'll write it off to ignorance, stupidity, arrogance, or 'D' - all of the above.

The disaster in New Orleans should have brought out the best side of people, banding together to help and encourage those who have suffered in this tragedy.

Instead many have stepped forward to scream with the loudest voices and disrespect those who have suffered and are continuing to suffer
are those (You will know them for their putrid mentality) who are acting as "who cares, it didn't affect me, I'm too important",
those who have the Klan Mentality of "serves them right, they are only minorities - the scum of the earth who are not worthy of living",
and those who react as if this is some genocidal gene pool chlorination that will give them the satisfaction that their perceived
burdon on society, will no longer be there to take away their 'so hard earned tax dollars' that they think should go for their own personal greed.

This is our United States, not some third world country, where they have always in the past been so disinterested in helping,
the ONLY sin that these people who are dying by the thousands have commited is that of having not been born into rich white culture.

I won't name names, but those who keep coming back with the 'their fault', 'Governer didn't', 'Mayor wasn't', 'Bush didn't know' themes,
and continue to deflect blame to cover their perceived 'I am too important', and 'they're only trash people' have got to be the least sincere
self centered hypocrites on this forum. I lost all respect for you.

Look accross the images of New Orleans - look at those thousands of houses sitting roof deep in water - many of those homes have
become necropolis neighborhoods - only the dead are inside - either by drowning, heat stroke from being trapped in attics, or died of injury.
They can't hardly get to those places yet to even begin to help, and each hour the slim chance of hope is being extinguished for too many.

Dave McOwen - whom so many like to ridicule and call a 'Looney Liberal' - actually did take part, and as far as I know continues to
help in the rescure as best he can. Conjur, who so many attack on a post by post basis, tried to communicate the message to those who frequent
this forum to keep people appraised of the situation, and direct them to where they could help - if they felt so inclined - or to donate if they could do so.

A handfull of individuals have chosen to do nothing except launch attack after attack on them, and to make false statements just to show
the depth of their arrogance and distain for anyone wh is willing to help those in need.
You're no better than the looters and shooters that caused even more problems for the rescue effort - you're no help at all.

I. for one. have been plesantly suprised as to how some who were staunch GOP supporters in the past opened their eyes and questioned what they saw.

Others conviened into their tight little circle of character assassins and blatently insulted anyone who didn't worship Bush.

I'm going to post very little over the next few days, I don't want to waste my time conversing with the Klan Mentality that came out here.
My Army Seargent Son is visiting with his wife before he returns for another year
in Iraq to do his job for this country.
Even he is dismayed with the lack of urgency from the Federal Level, and he understands the scope of what happened,
and knows that he may be deployed into New Orleans when he returns to Fort Hood on Monday night, to join those from his base that have already gone there.

To those of you who have been supportive of the rescue effort, and have voiced your dissapointment with Federal Assiatance - I thank you.

For those core few who call everyone who dosen't agree with then, and wish death on those who are so desparate - shame on you.
God is going to make sure that there's a special place in Hell you can call your very own.

This will be found to be, after it's all sorted out, the largest catastrophy this Nation has ever faced, and so much of it could have been avoided.

For the most part, you have stepped forward and tower head and shoulder above the mental midgets that plague this forum.
Some of you have (Like me) gotten a bit too passionate when trying to educate those who have chosen to remain ignorant.
That can be understood in the heat of an argument, as when the ad hominim personal attacks begin.
Most of you have proven yourselves to be gentlemen during the conversations, and have given substance to your thoughts.
Cudos to you.

Many I reserve judgement on, as they are either too recent into this side of the forum, or have shown a willingness to think and learn.

Then there's the 'Dirty Dozen' - this Forums own plague upon humanity, may God help you . . you can't help youselves, and you deserve so little from life.

K

When you get those quills in your snoot, they are really hard to pull out, aren't they. Plenty of partisan slime from all on your list, but nothing calling for good management as a mandate.

it's funny how a crisis brings out the best & worst in people - even here, at a distance.

i never expected to see the overt racial hatred a few people have demonstrated
& the total rejection of basic values of citizenship (&, i dare say, Christianity)
with respect to the Katrina victims.

There are many on that list that I don't always agree with, but what they have in common is an ability to think for themselves.

Not on that list!

Oh, and thanks for the list. I needed a list of the liberals on the forum and was too lazy to make my own. Off to the print que it goes.

I do get overly passionate about my message, especially when it comes to life or death issues. I believe that all life is precious and that our society can only be measured through our actions and by how we help the "least" of us.

Too many on this forum, care about one thing: money and/or their ownselves.

I remember a time when I was like that and I feel ashamed of myself for that line of thinking. I'd like to think that I have evolved and am continuing to evolve my thought process above that. The biggest eye-opener for me was the birth of my first little girl almost 5 years ago and I began to REALLY think about what kind of country and world I wanted to leave my children and my future grandchildren. I realized that the joy of life cannot be found in green-colored paper, but by the love I give my children and the teaching of what is right and just that I give them.

But anyway, enough of my rambling. Thank you again, Captn. Much love to ya, brother. :beer::thumbsup:


I care about poor management that kills people!

Is it true that if the President hadn't called the Governor and the Mayor and insisted that they evacuate, that many more would have died?

I was pointing out that kirks comment in itself was hypocrtical and have advised him to tone it down. I have yet to disagree with anyone on the apparent lack of provisions being supplied to those stuck at the superdome. However I fault at level of goverment for not doing their job. OF course you are only trying to push it on me because you know I have not defended the feds slow response.

Let me state one more time, the fed is not without blame, but the state and local are not without blame either.

Yea because TLC's response was blame the victim and that the Feds did a great job.

Tyhe feds may have not done a great job, but thus far, they have done the only government job!

I find it interesting that you ascribe inhumanity to those who, for whatever reason, don't express their emotions (rather useless constructs when it comes to natural disasters) in a fashion you would have them expressed. "Cesspool of humanity???" You really did strain the boundaries of good taste with this little dirge, Kirk. I suggest you spend more time trying to control your own emotions, as opposed to dictating terms to others.

Show that you can be above the fray and be critical of all levels of goverment that have failed.
So when lines of communication, roads and infrastructure have crumbled you still place blame on local officials who for days were trying to get more help?

Look either you don't care or you are just putting up a BS front. Which one is it?

Someplace in your liberal mind, you have to understand that caring is placing blame for inept management that killed citizens. Leadership is elected to serve the people and the people must demand that they do so! Having no plan for an emergency is the most egregious fault a leader can put forth.

Sorry. We'll have to agree to disagree. I find letting thousands of people die while you pose for photo ops and revel in red tape far, far more egregious. This isn't some infantile partisan game. Those were real human beings who died -- and continue to die -- because their alleged "leaders" at all levels, local, state, and federal failed them.

In the public admission of a Democratic Senator from La. that there was no evacuation plan, although they knew of the problem for the last thirty years. How else do myyou cut that?

Interesting little tidbit from this afternoons Fox. Intervgiewing a citizen in New Orleans waiting for the chopper. Citizen says "This city is run by a bunch of idiots!" A quick pan to the reporter who says "He said: This thing is being run by a bunch of idiots!" A lot of difference in the statements. I wonder just what they are up to? Trying to totally hide ALL mismanagement? This was FOX, remember?

Your OP was nothing but a giant squat on your ideological opposition in here. Stop trying to hide from that fact. It was crap and will remain crap, no matter what kind of lipstick you put on that nasty, fat pig.

A quick pan to the reporter who says "He said: This thing is being run by a bunch of idiots!" A lot of difference in the statements. I wonder just what they are up to? Trying to totally hide ALL mismanagement? This was FOX, remember?

Heard it here first folks.

According to Condor Fox News has now defected to the liberal side!

You must have a pretty good view from that roost eh?

Sorry. We'll have to agree to disagree. I find letting thousands of people die while you pose for photo ops and revel in red tape far, far more egregious. This isn't some infantile partisan game. Those were real human beings who died -- and continue to die -- because their alleged "leaders" at all levels, local, state, and federal failed them.

He did do that -- as victims were being removed to safety by chopper behind him.

Like it or not, the federal response has been the only effective response. As I have stated, it took five days for the feds to tool up after Camille.

I do wonder if you realize you've rather obviously complimented those who agree with your general train of thought on the current administration and damned the rest. An interesting way to supposedly honour a lack of partisan thought.

Liberals really do love liberals. Reality just doesn't exist for them.

A seperate reality from you, that's for sure.

And mine actually exists.

Heh, you think I'd believe anything a BushLover would tell me??? ;)

My reality exists, but yours doesn't, LOL :p

If your reality did really exist, you would know that EZ never does it! Few things are ever EZ.
