FEMA Dumps Brown As Katrina Relief Chief

Call a spade a spade: Pres. Bush appointing this guy as head of FEMA was NOT a positive move. Pulling him out of the Katrina situation into a role of "overall supervision" is effectively kicking him upstairs to get him out of the way.

This is a necessary move, and frankly, the Chief hopes that he is gracefully moved out altogether after some period of time, to complete the process of error correction.

His replacement, Coast Guard Admiral Thad Allen has HIS ducks in a row, and will be a major improvement.

California's New Orleans

Quick, name an American city of 450,000 where the majority of the population is non-white, where a quarter of the population lives in poverty, and where some of the city streets are, even on a dry day, below sea level. New Orleans, of course. But also Long Beach, California.

What happened in NOLA could apparently also happen in California's Long Beach, complete with large minority populations left at the mercy of the elements. The biggest difference is that they are being kept that way by envirowackos who feel that a "natural" beachfront is better than bothering to protect people & their homes, etc.

Parts of the city in southern Los Angeles county stand an average three feet below sea level, compared to eight feet for New Orleans. Yet despite all the talk from the political left that the Bush administration has effectively drowned New Orleans residents, that same political left is working assiduously to leave Long Beach residents exposed.

Typical moonbat logic - or lack therof - never to be bothered by a mere bugaboo of being consistant.

Read the rest to gain a bit more insight into the mind of the elitist envirowacko cult of nature uber alles.
