		<description><![CDATA[By Thomas E. Brewton New Orleanians born and bred in the welfare-state seem honestly believe that they are not required to do anything to help themselves. A large number of people, most of whom apparently are residents of New Orleans, have favored me with four-letter-word denunciations of&#160; The god That Failed New Orleans. A common [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[By Thomas E. Brewton Why does much of New Orleans still look as if the 2005 devastation of Hurricane Katrina had occurred just a few weeks ago? Huge areas of New Orleans still are wastelands. New Orleans&#39;s liberal-progressive-socialist Senator Mary Landrieu has grabbed far more than her share of Congressional pork. Hundreds of millions of [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Mayor Nagin&#39;s ranting on a recent 60 Minutes&#160;about rebuilding New Orleans has created a buzz in the news scene. The following piece is from www.scrappleface.com and&#160;it says it all about the&#160;blunt style of Mayor Nagin. And the truth abounds. (2006-08-25) &#8212; New Orleans Mayor Ray Nagin, who this week answered criticism about the speed of [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[At a cost of over $236 million, FEMA has contracted the services of three&#160;Carnival cruise ships to help house displaced evacuees from Katrina. Yet, Greece&#160;offered two of their cruise ships for service for&#160;FREE.&#160; And to this day, all three ships sit nearly empty costing us taxpayers $2-3 million per day! Sens. Tom Coburn, R-Okla., and [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Shortly following Katrina&#39;s landfall, Mayor Nagin&#160;and Governor Blanco began ripping the Federal government and blaming President Bush&#160;on the slow response to the major disaster in Louisiana. They both had ample time to react themselves as per law. Instead one of the most damaging catastrophe occurred without any proper evacuation. &#160; A the post in FreeRepublic.com,&#160;Why [...]]]></description>

Too bad no one took in consideration the possibilities of a massive evacuation. I remember in the&#160;1980s, when the cold war was at its peak Connecticut was identified [...]]]></description>
