BAGHDAD

Just for kicks, stupid quotes about the disastor:

 

1) "I don't think anybody anticipated the breach of the levees."

Good stuff. Saw this a couple hours before you posted it here, had a chuckle.

 

Also remember seeing on the most recent Real Time the comparison in coverage on looters; I can't remember where the examples were from, but it'd make my day if it was Fox News.

 

Anyway, one picture had a black family carrying supplies through water, and the caption read something like: "Looters in New Orleans try to escape after breaking into a local supermarket."

 

The next picture was almost exactly the same, except it was a pair of white guys: "New Orleans residents wade to safety after finding supplies."

I don't think it is daft to question rebuilding a city that is already underwater. If you are going to build a city from scratch, build it someplace above sea level. Or build it like Venice and make the canals part of the sewage system, I mean charm.

I think the point was the timing of it.

 

You know, wait till people arn't drowning in said city
