like cold water on hotheads:
all of this "Katrina Anniversary" stuff is asinine, primarily because it consists of a large number of people complaining that the government "isn't doing its job" and other such foolishness (interestingly, ALL of the complaining comes from New Orleans). Um...guess what? It isn't the government's job to evacuate cities, rebuild cities, give people money to rebuild their home, et cetera. So quit your whining and act like real Americans - you know, self-made and hard-working and all that. The cries of civic pride make me roll my eyes; what civic pride? For one thing, New Orleans was already a crime-ridden dump of a city before Katrina. If these people had civic pride in their city, they'd get to work rebuilding and cleaning up, not waiting for the feds to roll in and fix everything for them...hm, kind of like the people in Mississippi and Alabama and Florida. They wouldn't have let New Orleans become a socialist welfare state rife with crime and immorality that is reminiscent of late Rome. Civic pride, my tail. Mobile has civic pride. Mississippi has civic pride (a LOT of it, too). Mississippi has civic pride. New Orleans has casinos and shiftless people demanding a handout.
