dems joke about hurricane

[sailorsam]

a former head of the DNC (Fowler) was caught joking with a fellow pol, taped as saying '(the hurricane) is proof God is on our side'. Fowler followed up with a self-serving apology saying he "was sorry IF anyone was offended", and followed with a proclomation supporting free speech and a complaint about people listening and and taping others' conversations.
well, Fowler, that's what happens when you're a public figure; look how the papparazzi staked out Kenneth Starr, e.g. and weren't you at the DNC when a Newt Gingrich cell phone conversation was taped and released (violating a federal law?)
I don't know what's worse, his semi-apology or Michael Moore's flat out refusal to apologize for saying that Gustav hitting during the Republican convention was 'proof that there's a God in heaven'.
but it's reassuring, kids, to know at least two Democrats have some belief in God!!!

funny, this didn't seem to make much of the news...

That's because the 3 levels of gov't handled it much better this time, ie, the local, state and feds.

They learned their lessons from Katrina and made changes, especially in the beauracacies. The people took the threat seriously and skipped town. Katrina will never be repeated again.

Something the left hates.

They sure beat it to death before by poltiticizing it.

I meant, the Fowler quote didn't make much news.
as for NOLA, some people learned some hard lessons after the last one. Limbaugh was praising Fema and Jindal (and Nagin!) Tuesday.
