Cedar Rapids and New Orleans

Cedar Rapids and New Orleans

"Dream Large"

When N.O. flooded, it was a racist plan to wipe out
black people.

Now that white people are getting flooded out, we
need to investigate ..
who?

I heard a dimwit on CNN yesterday say that this
reminded him of New Orleans.
How?

Outside of being flooded, there is no looting, no
people wandering the
streets looking for meanness, no grocery carts being
shoved through the
water carrying stolen big screen TVs, no people
sitting on the tops of their
houses waiting on the government to come and get
them, no police abandoning
their posts, no Iowans bitching how the government
and George Bush is
failing them. There is not one thing, other
than water, that is similar
to New Orleans.

The streets in Des Moines are empty. People left
when they were told to
evacuate. They didn't whine, bitch or blame the
government for the broken
levees. They did what responsible people do in a
crisis.

The actions of the people of Des Moines only makes
the actions of the people
of New Orleans look worse.



AMEN

it is an interesting thought. You wonder sometimes about the Aww I better not say. Anyway good post.

Howdy,
good analogy between the two cities and citizens. I have been thinking the same thing. Isnt it amazing that George Bush isnt to blame this time. Even more amazing is that he was blamed for New Orleans. Have a goodun!!!!
