National Infrastructure Is Vital

All the years of foot dragging by the feds has finally caught up with us. National Security is not just fighting terrorism. The security of our nation needs to be just as importantly directed to natural occurances that can disrupt power, food and medical care to the people.
The situation along the Gulf Coast has been a burning powderkeg, along the lines of the failure of the government to prevent, or at least forsee the attack on Pearl Harbor in 1941.
Stuff happens, most of the time. But sometimes the stuff that happens can be prevented, or at least planned for to reduce the negative impact of whatever the occurence might be.
To be honest, I didn't personally know that New Orleans was a city mostly below sea level. I have been aware, even as a child of the situation in Holland. Almost the entire country is below sea level. The system of dykes they use, with partioning of segments of area prevents the sort of catastrophe that occured a couple of weeks ago in Lousiana.
It's amazing that the politicians (mostly Dems) who have been responsible for the protection (or lack thereof) the area in regards to flooding have been able to get away with their failures for such a long time.
It's not a Federal situation, actually. The local officials needed to make their needs shown, much more vehemently than historically happened. Those officials were Dems.....99%
Those who point fingers at George Bush for being constantly trying to protect the oil interests of our country, well what happened here?
I can't imagine that the president would want his oil interests to fail, via a flood or two in the Southern regions of our country.

The Anti Bush People Get More Press

It's just like the Vietnam era, without all of the dead Americans. We have the MSM supporting the likes of Cindy Sheehan, who has obviously been manipulated by the Left in her continuous attacks against George Bush, and the war in Iraq.
As far as I'm concerned, anyone or any group who thinks this type of ridiculous activity is OK, should have their head examined.
These people need to focus on reality, not their own little world of suffering.

Al Gore Says Global Warming Is Bush's Fault

Check out the piece I have linked. Al Gore appeared in San Francisco (where else?) to get a sympathetic audience, and proceeded to blame the current administration for Global Warming, using a study that was undoubtably known during the Clinton administation. Here's the quote:

"What happened was not only knowable, it was known in advance, in great and painstaking detail. They did tabletop planning exercises. They identified exactly what the scientific evidence showed would take place," Gore said.

Now if Gore said who "They" are, it's not in the piece, that is basically a fluff piece for Loud Al.
