Red states aren't effected by terrorism? I'm guessing your saying that because there are no major targets? What about....let's say, the world's largest naval base? I believe that terrorism affects all states. Also, I don't see how *** marriage doesn't effect red states. All ***s stay in the blue states?

Personally I believe he didn't show up in New Orleans right after the hurricane because he was probably being advised not to because it wasn't safe. Of course, that's just my view, which you believing he is a lazy is your point of view.

And Michael Browning won't make it out of this alive (having his job). That was part of the speech saying a full investigation of what went wrong "on all levels" is going to be done.

Also, I think the whole race argument is lame.

With all the perks of being president I sure as hell think they could make it safe for him.

As for the race argument, you're right, it is lame. You can't be president if you're racist, it just doesn't work like that anymore. The spotlight is too intense and critical of the president as a person. Americans won't vote you in if you are racist in any way.

For one thing, now I know you're ut of the political sportlight because Browning has already resigned.

Secondly, its no racism in the vein that he hates blacks, its racism, and classism, in the way of them not beceing able to support his campaign fincially, , and knowing blacks in new orleans probably didn't vote for him. Not all racism wears a white hood.

I thought Browning stepped down but was still working with FEMA. Am I wrong? I could be.

And I'm not sure how much of it was it being a majority (what..83%, something around there) blacks or the fact that we haven't had such a large scale storm in...well, ever.

The head of Homeland security, who's name escapes me at the moment, sent him back to DC, but then he signed because someones head needed to roll.

Did he resign as head of FEMA and go down to a lower position still working with FEMA or did he just resign in total? I thought it was the first of the two and he was still working, but totally could be wrong as I honestly have been busy as hell lately. I'll try to look up some stuff on it later.
