For a minute there I thought I had to get off my couch, when all the while the fact is we don't have to do anything much but keep things afloat for just a few decades more! In fact, we'd best shut up about PO, because if our offspring finds out we knew about it all along, they'll turn and wring our necks come 2036!

It is silly for you to blame Bush for the failure of the mayor of New Orleans and the governor of Louisianna to effectively evacuate their people.

Read and learn about FEMA:

On March 1, 2003, th ...

George Bush didn't wave his magic wand and make the hurricane disappear.

I think Gustav was still probably a CAT 2 when it went over the LOOP, but Im not 100% sure about that.

When it reached the LOOP it was officially a CAT 2 but the max sustained wind speeds were hold ...

Down to a Cat 1. Dunno, the storm track from WU makes it look like Gus slightly missed the LOOP, although the radar seemed to show a closer pass.
