THE GREED OF ALL GREED. They certainly do recognize a bargain when they see one. As this rag states "The Lucky Ones." You know I can imagine buying up property if I could afford it in New Orleans. But it wouldn't be self-serving. Instead it would be to protect the former property owners and/or their descendants with great hope of meeting them and giving them back what they had lost. Allowing them to pick up and start over in the place they called home. But this? Dear God. This is Chirstian. Opportunism? I see. I guess where Federal Dollars are rolling in like water proud evangelicals are standing at the watering trough, toxic or not.
Katrina resettling Gulf Coast
By Sara B. Miller and Amanda Paulson Staff writers of The Christian Science Monitor
BATON ROUGE, LA. – It was their dream home. What Cendy Crownover called her "little dollhouse."
But last weekend, she and her husband Kelly put away thoughts of their lovingly remodeled crown molding and oak flooring, now submerged, so they could start anew: with a realtor 80 miles away, in Baton Rouge.
"It's going to be a tough two years," says Ms. Crownover, estimating the time it might take to rebuild their house, which sat just 11 blocks from the breached levee in New Orleans's Lakeview district.
The Crownovers are joining a real estate frenzy that has hit Baton Rouge and beyond - a flurry of down payments, all-cash home sales, and contracts signed before the house is seen. Yet in many ways, these are the lucky ones. More than 100,000 evacuees are still displaced in shelters throughout the region. Others are crowding in with families and strangers, some sharing one bathroom with 20 others.

POLITICAL SKILL. I see. A president needs political skill in the face of the deaths of thousands of citizens. It would be nice to try coming up with policies with fiscal responsibilities for a change. You know. Something Moral. When one combines the two articles you begin to understand their desperate nature to keep a blood sucker in the Oval Office.
For Bush, a test of political skill
Moods have risen a bit, but Bush is under pressure on many fronts.
By Linda Feldmann Staff writer of The Christian Science Monitor
WASHINGTON – Four years ago, when George W. Bush emerged from the 9/11 attacks with sky-high marks for decisiveness and leadership, he accumulated a reserve of political capital that saw him through reelection.
Now, nearly nine months into his second term, President Bush faces perhaps the most profound test of executive and political skill of his life. One week after hurricane Katrina slammed into the Gulf Coast, wreaking unfathomable devastation, his administration is still scrambling to make up for a delayed initial response that faced broad, bipartisan criticism. Americans are reeling over gasoline prices, and remain skeptical over the course of the Iraq war. Plans for a bold second-term agenda - including Social Security reform and tax reform - sit in doubt.

September 7, 2005. It would appear that Ophelia is splitting it's eye while being pulled west across Florida. If this storm heads for the Gulf and meets up with a convection system that now spans Mexico, I don't want to know the velocity it can reach. I don't want anyone to get comfortable with the idea 'we can relax.' Now, is not the time. A few weeks from now but the solar radiation is still with us.
There is no doubt at this time that the progress of Tropical Storm Ophelia is of concern and should never be dismissed as insignificant. Katrina killed 11 people as a Cat One Hurricane.
Lies that kill !! How responsible was the reporting of Katrina in the deaths discovered in it's wake?
You have no morals and lie like hell !
You kill people.
The storm has barely moved at all?

It's Not a 'Blame Game'
I really think the longer the investigation is put off the obscure the facts will become and the more manipulated and buried by Bush's administration it will come.
The current storm nearest the continent, Ophelia has moved closer to the Gulf.

Tropical weather may dampen Jags' opener
MARK LONG
Associated Press
JACKSONVILLE, Fla. - Tropical weather could play a bigger role than heat and humidity in Jacksonville's season opener.
Tropical Storm Ophelia strengthened Wednesday off Florida's Atlantic coast, threatening parts of the state and southern Georgia with strong wind and heavy rain. The system could affect Sunday's game against the Seattle Seahawks and make Jaguars coach Jack Del Rio's jersey swap a moot point.

Here we go again and currently CNN is stating they haven't got a clue. They must do weather reports for Bush.
You kill people.

Ms. Bigot minimizes lives
conti2005 - 7:32 PM ET September 7, 2005 (#71488 of 71492)Impeach Bush and Cheney ! Rove is their 'Front Man'
Propaganda. Propaganda. Did Rove have this planned to CYA?
It's Not a 'Blame Game'
The Propaganda Networks are trying to down play the devastation of Katrina. They are attempting to HIDE the tragedy of Bush/Cheney. You'll excuse me but I don't like citizens lives toyed with in propaganda campaigns of incompetents. It only goes to show the level of 'influence' this form of excrement thinks they have. They don't mind when government is so negligent that it murders it's own people.
Radar back in the day wasn't mildly perfected until 1935. .

Radar was patented (British patent) in April, 1935.

It wasn't used for weather forecasting for much, much later.
Since 1943 U.S. military aircraft have been flying into hurricanes to measure wind velocities and directions, the location and size of the eye, the pressures within the storms, and their thermal structure. A coordinated system of tracking hurricanes was developed in the mid-1950s, and periodic improvements have been made over the years.
Radar, sea-based recording devices, geosynchronous weather satellites (since 1966), and other devices now supply data to the NHC in Florida, which follows each storm virtually from the beginning. Improved systems of prediction and communication have been able to help minimize loss of life in hurricanes, but property damage is still heavy, especially in coastal regions.
Gilbert, a Category 5 storm that was the strongest hurricane to hit the western hemisphere in the 20th century, devastated Jamaica and parts of Mexico in 1988 with winds that gusted up to 350 km/hr (218 mph).
Cat 4 - Hugo - Landfall Charleston, SC - total deaths in the USA - 50.
Destructive hurricanes in recent U.S. history include the Category 4 storms Hugo (1989), which caused more than $4 billion in damage and more than 50 deaths,
Cat 5 - Andrew - South Florida - total deaths in the USA - 50
Andrew (1992), with more than $20 billion in damage, more than 50 deaths, and thousands left homeless;
Fran (1996), a Category 3 hurricane, with more than $3 billion in damage and 28 deaths.
Not since the 1950's have storms of this nature ever caused widespread deaths as Katrina has.
The reason.
Nobody cared about the Black Americans of New Orleans that lived in the most dangerous weather path in the country. NOW. The propaganda nut cases want to give 'The Party' a way OUT of their accounting for so much damage and death in the Gulf States.
"And tomorrow marks the 105th anniversary of the Galveston, Texas hurricane that destroyed the city and left about 8,000 people dead. The city of Galveston was rebuilt 5 feet higher than it was before. Should New Orleans do the same?"
THAT IS AN OUTRAGE !!!
In 1900. There was no Early Warning System for ANY weather, yet alone Global Warming Storms.
THEY ARE DOING THIS BECAUSE OF THE NUMBER OF DEAD BEING A MINIMUM OF 10,000.
Knock it off. I don't appreciate having my life and the lives of others minimized so it all can happen again !!!!
