I was just thinking this would be a perfect song for someone to write for this election and found your video. Here's to hoping we get enough red states to turn blue and elect Obama our next president!
Thanks speechmon for your comment. When I products this video and recorded the song for it I knew in my heart most of the state would in fact turn blue on election day. When we wake up on November 5, 2008 Obama will be president.
For 40 years that levy was known to only handle a cat 3 storm. I'm not sticking up for the president but why isn't the gov and mayor in this song anywhere? MY TOILET'S BROKE AND NOW THERE'S CRAP EVERYWHERE - IT MUST BE BUSH'S FAULT!! doesn't that sound kind of stupid?
I'm sure if it would have hit central Texas the story would have been different..... probably would have lost less GOOD people... not saying there all bad....
with that said below, i still love new orleans and the people, and i didn't mean to disrespect the lost, but i've even helped to rebuild it because i love the culture of new orleans, but i hate to see people blame government for something that isn't their problem like we did to Bush and the government. we have to take our own responsibility. same for the west coast with earthquakes and the mid west with tornadoes. my prayers are still with those families and i pray for a safe hurricane season.
^It's all there, jason. Pull-yourself-up-by-your-bootstraps and prayer. Are you saying that no state should accept Federal assistance even if it's overwhelmed by a disaster? You gotta be kidding.
all i can say is i'm from south alabama and my grandmother who is 88 said we never had help from goverment when we lost everything since she was a child. ask the mayor of new orleans what he did with all the federal money that was given over 30 years for rebuildig the leves? look where he lives and what he drives. why didn't he plan for evacuation 2 weeks in advance? wouldn't you? if would save lives. after all your below sea level, and you have known this since the battle of 1814
New Orleans officials knew that the flood could happen anytime. They didn't do anything however because the coffers were empty due to all their ridiculous social programs that obviously didn't work because the poor people do nothing but leech off of them instead of using them to help themselves. Also, anyone who's poor today is poor because they are on drugs or lazy. If we have jobs for every Mexican than can crawl here, we have work for anyone that's already living here.
Figures allowed this. Inner city distruction clearing a "clean slate" for investers/corporations. Sounds fake? How about Enron with the power grid? and what Haliburton earnings in Iraq despite the loss of human life. You mean to tell me that a country years ago in the Berlin Airlift era can organize a complete supply airlift IN GERMANY to support thousands in an instant but in our own back yard they could not get aid to New Orleans?
Actualy with Reid assuming the highest possion in government that any Mormon has ever held Mormons are starting to reconsider their hate for the Democrat party.
Not true. He doesn't care enough about black people to hate them, thus he is indifferent. As for Democrats, he leaves that to Rove because he cannot grasp the concept of more than one political party.
WTF,Natural disasters are a local and state's job to prepare and be the first on the scene.This vid highlights N O's dumbass Mayor, Schoolbus Nagin and that incompetent LA governor.
Thank GAWD it is happening now! Shame it took such terrible neglect and incompentency on the part of the Bush administration to make people wake up. Guess some people think $300+ billion would have been better spent at home than for war in the mid-East.
