"Here's the deal, Saws... The Army Corps of Engineers were funded to rebuild the levee and pump systems to keep the Mississippi River and Lake Pontchartrain out of New Orleans... That is where the "federal" responsibility officially ended for the Corps..."

Let's get something REAL strrrrrAAAight. Engineers can build you anything you want BUT YOU HAVE TO PAY TO BUILD IT. If YOU or your elected representative don't have the money... well... yer fucked, eh.

Obama's levees failed? What a bunch a horseshit.

As a Canuck, I am seriously offended by the bullshit intended herein. You go back and read the threads after and about Katrina. First on the scene was a Canuck warship (and, BTW, WTF???) that offloaded enough MRE's to feed THOUSANDS and they were ordered to reload them because a mad cow from USA was found in Canada a wee time before. Now... I don't think Obama would have given that order... starve people for absolutely no reasonable reason? Some people are misinformed or they have selective memories.

Obama's levees? He's been Pres for less than four years. Katrina ripped apart people's lives SEVEN FUCKING YEARS AGO. Where was Bush then? Where was the legislation to grant the Corps the $ they needed THEN or BEFORE?

Do you think before you post... fer fuck sake? You should be ashamed.
