Expand And Nagin for saving all those buses he could have used to get those folks out of New Orleans. Oh, wait. He didn't save the buses, most of them were probably ruined also. I talked to a black lady several days ago that had a close, older, female relative that lived in the flooded area. None of her family has heard from her, and evidently there's not Enough Resources to go check on the poor lady. But they don't need no stinking Govt help. Quote

Nobody gets credit for the evacuations in rita and ike, but nobody gets the blame either. many people talk about free stuff, but during rita many people that make plenty of money applied for the fema money. Expand Rita response and evacuation has everything to do with competent leaders in the Great State of Texas. I really shouldn't have to be explaining things like this to you. Fema money was meant to hold you over till people went back to work and normalcy was attained. I went by my insurance company and they cut me a $1000 check. Said that was just the beginning. Came by my house and surveyed the damage, told me how much they had already figured and said if I found anything else, it was still open. My work was torn up but not totaled. Went by there to see how bad things were and was met by a supervisor who handed me $500 cash to hold me over. Texas.....what a great state. Take a guess who the president was. It only happend a couple weeks after Katrina. Hello!!! Quote
Hagar Posted August 20, 2016 Report Posted August 20, 2016 Obama just showing up won't help? I disagree. His appearance would bring more national press, which in turn would encourage the rest of America to contribute money and goods to help. Even probably bring some groups to physically help folks. And lastly, he should come because it's the right thing to do. Quote
stevenash Posted August 20, 2016 Report Posted August 20, 2016 Just heard on TV that Mr. Obama will be going to Louisiana on Tuesday. I guess the Governors "resource" issue will be all cleared up by then. Quote
