Hurricane
Katrina Blame Game: Political pitchers in rubber rooms shouldn't throw muck-balls-- Ragin'
Nagin, Kathleen Blanco, Jesse Jackson, Al Sharpton, Robert F. Kennedy, Jr., Howard Dean, Mary Landrieu,
et al.
However, as the facts gradually emerge regarding the Hurricane Katrina Timeline commencing on August
26, 2005, and continuing through Katrina's aftermath, it's becoming clear that the main causes of
most of such "delays" were the incompetence and obstinacy on the part of New Orleans Mayor
Ray Nagin and Louisiana Governor Kathleen Blanco and her subordinates. According to Red Cross
officials, they were poised to deliver food, water and medical supplies to people stranded in New
Orleans almost immediately in the wake of the hurricane, but when when they sought permission to do
so, Blanco's subordinates refused to grant such permission because they didn't want the provision of
such relief to become a "magnet" to induce people to refuse to be evacuated. This
is even worse than the blatant hypocrisy shown by Nagin in his press-conference heaping blame on
Bush for the plight of the "black" and "poor" stranded in New Orleans due to
their having lacked "the means" to comply with Nagin's "order" for
"mandatory" evacuation a few hours before the hurricane struck even though Nagin had
failed to arrange, or persuade Governor Blanco to authorize, the use of the city's large fleet of
school buses to transport those people out of the city, after which Nagin negligently left
the school-bus fleet in a parking that was likely to be, and did in fact become, flooded.
To add insult to injury, Nagin later claimed that city buses traveling through their neighborhoods
during those pre-Katrina hours accompanied by public-address announcements urging "the
poor" to board the buses to be transported to safety had evacuated virtually all those
residents who would have been willing to leave the city, which claim contradicted his
curse-and-abuse accusation that Bush was callously failing to rescue those whose poverty had
prevented them from leaving the city before Katrina struck.
Statements by people such as Kayne West, the Congressional
Black Caucus, Al Sharpton, Jesse Jackson, and numerous others claiming delays in rescue
and relief were caused by what they characterized as a "dislike" of, or callous
indifference to, people who are "black" and/or "poor" weren't merely
irresponsibly, slanderously and libelously false, they were also maliciously so. Fortunately
for Bush, the truth will soon expose such accusations for what they were: political
hate-mongering. As their odorous allegations bounce back upon them, those pitchers of political hate
will soon discover that people in rubber rooms shouldn't pitch muck-balls. Not even the
dominant media will be able to conceal these obvious facts.

where satire is alwayscommentary, but commentaryisn't always satire.™
New
Orleans Mayor Ray Nagin as "Ragin' Nagin" wins place in Smearers Hall of Fame by smearing
George W. Bush with Nagin's own failure to use school-bus fleet to evacuate blacks and "the
poor."
For this stroke of political genius, he earned a place in the Smearers Hall of Fame as the recipient
of the "Projection Award" for 2005. Most astute political observers agree that few
politicians could accomplish such incredibly facile political sleight-of-hand. However, upon
being notified of his being the recipient of the "Projection Award," Nagin-- not wanting
to seem a braggart-- said he could have not done it by himself and then proceeded to thank those in
the dominant media who thoughtfully and kindly avoided mentioning his failures to use, and preserve,
the school-bus fleet.
