"What the American people have seen is this incredible disparity in which
those people who had cars and money got out and those people who were
impoverished died."

( Mary Jo Kopechne's family whole-heartedly agreed).

And the democratic local leadership left 100s of school busses to flood
in NOLA while republican local leadership in Galveston used their busses
to evacuate over 90% of their population....

As I am sure you consider yourself an honest man,
I will look forward to your impending criticisms of the right wing. :-)

There's one tough aspect about being politically "fair" when commenting
on some officials, such as the POTUS. There is only one party in office
at any given time. If you guys want to have the office, you need to be
willing to take the criticism that will be heaped on *any* occupant
thereof. Comes with the territory.

Chuck,

I agree that if one is to be considered an honest man it is important that
you do not place blame based upon ones political affiliation. That was my
point concerning those who want to absolve the massive failures of the New
Orleans and Louisiana government, just because they were democratic.

Since I consider you to be an honest man, I must have missed your criticism
of the local and state governments. The only post I saw from you concerning
this matter was criticism Bush and his administration.

With experience your get wisdom. That wisdom is based upon your personal
experience and some of the things that Pres. Bush is adamant about issues I
now find myself in disagreement with.

So, I do disagree with some of my party's platform, however, I disagree with
most if not all of the other party's platform.
