Nagin was and is just what you suggested. However, the president is not responsible for evacuations. You should get all your info from the Weather Channel, local news stations, your mayor and governor. The last two failed miserably at leadership during a catastrophe. I know you want so hard to blame this on Bush, but Nagin was responsible for the deaths during Katrina, and the governor. The federal government comes in after the storm to supply housing, medical assistance, and basic supplies such as water and ice. Bush did his part, where is Obama? I know, you won't question the chosen one. It wouldn't fit.

He's coming in tommorrow after the storm like you just suggested

Chris Christie praised him in hurricane Sandy. Obama must not care about cajun people 

Superstorm (mainstream media term for strong wind not strong enough to be classified as a hurricane) Sandy happened right before an election, thus his quick and caring response.

Why wouldn't he?  He showed up and expressed/demonstrated concern for the people of New Jersey and I am guessing that Mr. Christie thought that praise might help him in his subsequent political endeavors.  Don't you think it is interesting that Mr. Christie had no problem with "diverting resources" for a Presidential visit while the governor of Louisiana did?  Wonder why Mr. Christie didn't ask him to "stay away" as the Louisiana Governor "allegedly" did?

Yes, he is. Haters are going to hate.

Big Girl-  Would you please list just 5 or 6 accomplishments of Mr. Obama that will contribute to him being regarded as one of the best Presidents ever?  ( and let me give you a small clue that, by asking you this question, it does not make me a hater or racist)

Can't do it, and they will say you are absolutely a racist.  No one can disagree with Mr. Obama without out being a racist.

I'll start.  The National Debt under Obama is greater than every other President in US history combined.  That's a hell of an accomplishment!

 

*edit- my bad, I forgot we don't know the difference between deficit and debt.

From the article:   Bottom Line: It's not fair to blame the debt situation on Obama, singularly because the debt numerically went up more than it did under Bush. Bush inherited a booming economy at the time of his , inaugurationbut his handling of many events left the country absolutely devastated; Hurricane Katrina, 9/11 (two unnecessary wars), and the looming recession.  

 

The stock market had three consecutive losing years which were 2000,2001, 2002.  Only time in recent history with 3 consecutive losing years.  Mr. Bush entered office in January 2001, and the recession "Officially" began within a few weeks.  Therefore, it is quite a stretch to suggest that Mr. Bush inherited a "booming economy".  If you want to claim that the Obama debt had its seeds planted by Mr. Bush, then you must also agree that the three consecutive negative years in the stock market and the "looming" recession of 2001 had their seeds planted by Bill Clinton.

Won't be seen that way by the libtards.  The events of 9/11 would have hurt the economy no matter who was potus.  It just happened to be W.  All the failures of Obama will be pointed to W, even though he had eight years to get it right.  W just caught in middle.  Most will want to call Mr. Obama one of the greatest because he was the first black potus, that is laughable.

Again, not a single accomplishment listed from BG as to why he is one of the greatest.  Can't be done.

Mr. Bush is responsible for Mr Obama's presidency. Things were so bad that a black man named Barrack could win an election. None of the black republicans have never even came close. A black man voting Republican is like chickens votong for the colonel

 And that's a sad reflection on our state of affairs.  Supposedly, folks like you are  supposed to represent objectivity and equality for all.  Your statement merely proves that you are swayed by skin color and you will teach your offspring (knowingly or unknowingly) that such an approach is the right one.  Addtionally, the election of Mr. Obama provides an indicator that things in this country are not as racist as you portray them to be.

Because of racist statements that Republicans make about blacks everyday

    • Well Mustang fans it's time for my annual end of season rant. I've had so much company up here on the soapbox that I may have to start charging rent. After 3 years I don't think anything needs to be said. We all know what's wrong. We all know why. So what's the decision at the next board meeting? IMO, there's been enough imaginary success for the board to rubber stamp the Superintendent's vision for our future student athletes. #make every second count Due to soft scheduling and a weaker than normal district. The luck of knocking off 2 ranked opponents early when they were not healthy or still trying to figure it out. Also led to a premature ranking and a hollow DCTF weekly award. The 2 late season losses vs ranked teams proves what we know has been the biggest problem.  Football 19-15 .559 Baseball 9-35 .205 Basketball 19-35 .352 GBB 11-29 .275 Softball 1-22 .043 Volleyball 0-38 .000 Overall 59-174 .253   For anyone living in the district, I ask that you contact you're elected board members publicly and privately. Don't let them think this is exceptable. Be the solution to the equation. Not the divisor. This starts at the top and falls heavily upon those walking the halls. They deserve better.
    • I don't think it's 6-5 maybe 4-3
    • Sounds like a good idea, and something’s been needed for a long time. I know—where my kids & grandkids live now (DFW area)—schools are like revolving doors for athletic purposes. I don’t think the DPISD & LPISD option enrollment are anywhere like that. I assume it’s pretty above board since it was an arrangement apparently agreed to also by the state. I do know some kids that went to LPISD elementary schools in DP chose to go to DPHS because of the district rating. (Of course, at the time, DPISD and DP in general wasn’t very racially mixed like La Porte.) LPISD has a high number of kids on assistance programs compared to DP. Say what you will, it does make it more difficult for educational purposes and scores can reflect as much. LPISD is still rated high even with that challenge. Some of the kids that chose DPHS were very solid athletes that I’m sure LP would love to have had attend LPHS. Of course, part of the big rivalry between DP & LP has always been because DP ‘looked down’ on LP even though we worked side-by-side. Now that Shell DP refinery has been sold to PEMEX, DP is changing. Some aren’t happy about it. Some of us in LP are kinda tickled about it after the history.
