Brad,
I didn't see anywhere where he said that.
What he did do was state already known facts:
1) The race card was played early and frequently during and after Katrina
2) The place is built in a HOLE
3) Some of the people there were too stupid, lazy, hard headed to leave when told to leave.
4) The Mayor is a clown
5) The Governor is a clown
6) The city is a chit hole (I'd never live there but I do like to visit)
7) The demands placed on the feds by the city were unreasonable.
You didn't hear this sort of nonsense coming out of Mississippi, Texas (when they've been hit), South Florida after Andrew, or the West Coast of Florida (Naples, Punta Gorda, etc) after the last hit they took a few years back.
What he didn't mention was:
1) The Feds poor planning and response (both before and after)
2) The people that were grateful for rescue and recovery efforts and a place to stay with food, water, after the flood. Of course we can thank the PRESS for that.
Those kind of stories rarely make headlines...bitching seems to sell more papers
Although it happens that 90 some odd percent of the effected population after Katrina were black,
the real problem was LEADERSHIP. Maybe better put, the lack thereof
Local government could have quelled many of those concerns, arguements and debates from the get go...instead...they fueled the rage!
