Excellent work at evacuating New Orleans.

Hopefully the next President can take money out of welfare and what we have been spending on the war and put it into more infrastructure including protecting our cities and vital ports.

On CNN Obama just took credit for it....seriously. Claims there is some legislation and recommendations he made that were "adopted" and made today;s response succesful.

Oh yeah, I think he made sure the sandbags were filled with sand. The stupid Republicans were just going to lay them there.

Thats pretty smug to take credit for the response. But what would you suspect from this guy.

Definitely. I commented on this on saturday when people started leaving.

Very, very good job from FEMA and the three levels of government.

Kosar-i just watched it - was an interview with Anderson Cooper. I imagine it will be replayed later tonight

I am sure Anderstutter Cooper didn't follow that up with any specifics did he.

Where do we get these reporters? The very next question should have been: "What were those specifics Barry?"

(Maybe Barry's campaign staff had rules about what could be asked and what couldn't; OR....maybe Anderson is more interested in being a partisan hack than a true journalist/reporter.)

No it was pretty much Obama talking and few questions. Cooper asked him what he would do different after showing a trailer from Katrina and it went to a long speech.

Cooper then asked him why he didnt go down there when McCain did and he said something to the effect of "I have too many secret service folks around me so it would be a distraction to go down there for just a photo op" -so I guess he was saying McCain was a bad guy for going down there? It wasnt much of a photo op then-I havent even seen one yet on any of these channels.

I don't watch CNN. I'm sure it will show up on the web somewhere, I guess.

Kosar no need he's speaking out of his ???. I just saw report. He said a lot was learned from Katrina. And one thing that was put into law that he and several others from congress worked togeather on work well. And earlier today he said things like good job done by all agencies. Offered to help any way he can. And his staff would be made ready to do what ever they could including rasing money or finding shelter for those that still may need it.

That isnt accurate. He credited a"legislation I passed and policies I suggested that were adopted" - he is claiming legislation as ihis that he had nothing to do with

It will be repeated later tonight. I am not tech savvy enough to do anything with it but I will try and rewatch and post the direct quote.

 

[Sun Tzu]

Reshowing it right now

 

[Sun Tzu]

"The legislation that I have passed just dealing with this issue post-Katrina about how me handle emergency management."

"Many of my recommendations were adopted and put in place as we speak"

 

[djv]

I just watched I stay with what I said above. I counted the times he said wanting to do what ever is needed to HELP. I believe HELP was used 8 times.

Are you sure he wasn't saying "hope"?

 

[Sun Tzu]

So you are trying to deny he said what I quoted?

And are you denying that those staements are patently false?

 

[Sun Tzu]

Are you sure he wasn't saying "hope"?

No, he said all the help stuff in between the campaign rhetoric...djv has just selectively chosen to ignore all the lying stuff about Obamas legislation
