Hurricane Gustav: Democrats Place Politics Over Lives

It's bad enough that Democrats, for the past 5 years, have worked tirelessly for our defeat in Iraq. Now Democrats are celebrating the arrival of killer Hurricane Gustav and the destruction it will cause all along the Gulf Coast, simply because it will disrupt the Republican Presidential Convention.

Democrats, both their candidates for the Presidency and their members of Congress, have spent the entire war in Iraq, seeking to undermine the moral of our troops while, simultaneously, bolstering the moral of our enemies...even to the point of providing al Qaeda's propaganda machine with talking points.

First the opposed the "McCain Troop Surge" (so named by them, not by McCain or any Republican), then, before the president had even gotten the surge troops into Iraq, they were busy proclaiming the surge a "failure."

Once the troop surge was in full swing, Democrats made every effort to portray the surge as a failure, even as its success was becoming so obvious that members of the mainstream media were forced to comment that violence was receding and political gains were being made.

So determined were Democrats to win the 2008 election, they and their annointed leader continue to deny the efficacy of what has now become one of the most successful operations in military history.

Defeat at any cost has become the battle cry of the Democrat Party. So focused are the Democrat leadership on winning the upcoming election, that they would willingly sacrifice the Iraqi people and the lives of our troops it they could bring about a defeat.

So now they have turned the "compassion" toward the people of the Gulf Coast, laughing at the approaching Hurricane Gustav and claiming that it is proof that "God is on our side."

Former DNC chairman was caught saying the following:

"[laughing]...it looks as if the storms going to hit New Orleans about the time they start. The timing is, at least it appears now that it will be there on Monday. I think that demonstrates that God is on our side. Everything's cool."

Mr. Fowler certainly seems to find it amusing that millions of people are going to be dislocated, millions of dollars of people's property will be destroyed, and some will probably die. Truly Democrats are the compassionate, caring party.

Can you imagine if some Republican was caught saying such a thing? Remember the uproar that Pat Robertson caused when he declared that the 9-11 attacks were God's retribution for our nation's embracing of the homosexual agenda...and he wasn't even an official of the Republican Party. Yet now we have a former chairman of the Democrat National Committee giggling like a school girl over the misfortune of the millions of people who live on the gulf coast.

Of course the ghoulish Mr. Fowler isn't the only Democrat saying these things, the indescribably grotesque pig, Michael Moore also finds the approaching disaster amusing.

Michael Moore: Hurricane Coming During GOP Convention 'Proof There Is a God in Heaven'

Controversial filmmaker admits he's delighted to see a natural disaster potentially interfere with the Republican event.

Sometime you really have wonder at what cost some are willing to see their political ideology advanced.

To liberal documentary filmmaker Michael Moore, the bounds are seemingly endless. Moore has made a recent career out of attacking President George W. Bush, bashing conservatives and criticizing business. His latest outrage occurred on MSNBC’s August 29 “Countdown with Keith Olbermann” and when he commented about the coincidental timing of an unfortunate disaster – the potential for Hurricane Gustav to make landfall at the beginning of the Republican National Convention in St. Paul, Minn.

“I was just thinking, this Gustav is proof that there is a God in heaven,” Moore said, laughing. “To have it planned at the same time – that it would actually be on its way to New Orleans for day one of the Republican Convention, up in the Twin Cities – at the top of the Mississippi River.”

After that comment, Moore backed off a bit and did say he hoped nobody got hurt and he hoped everybody is taking cover. However, he failed to make note of the $43.625 billion in damage the last hurricane to strike New Orleans caused – Hurricane Katrina in 2005 – and the billions of dollars the storm cost taxpayers.

Ha, ha, ha...yes Michael, you and your fellow traveller Keith Olbermann yuck it up. It's just soooo funny that millions of people's lives are going to be turned upside down. I am certain that they are happy to lose all of their posessions for your amusement, you cold-blooded bastard.

What you won't here from these losers. What the mainstream media will avoid at all costs is mentioning the profound difference between the reactions of Republican Governors in this crisis versus that of Kathleen Blanco, the then Democrat Governor of Louisiana during Katrina.

The difference was evident even during Katrina in the manner in which Haley Barbour, the Republican Governor of Mississippi handled Katrina. Mississippi was even more devastated by Hurricane Katrina than was Louisiana, they got the "dirty side" of the storm yet little of the whining, chaos, and lawlessness so prevalent in Louisiana was evident there.

Now, Louisiana has a Republican Governor, Bobby Jindal. Governor Jindal informed the RNC that he would not be going to the Republican Convention several days ago, once it became apparent that Hurricane Gustav posed considerable threat to his state. He has already activated the Louisiana National Guard, unlike Blanco who waited until Hurrican Katrina had already wreaked havoc in her state and stranded hundreds of thousands of her citizens.

We can see the difference between Republicans and Democrats. Governor Perry of Texas, a Republican has begun preparations for a mandatory evacuation of the Texas Gulf Coast. Bobby Jindal the Republican Governor of Louisiana has, as I have already stated began evacuating the citizens of New Orleans and the Louisiana Gulf Coast and is doing it in such an organized fashion that the residents of New Orleans are praising him.

Mississippi Governor Haley Barbour (a Republican) issued his declaration of a state of emergency three days ago (August 28th), saying:

“I urge all Mississippians to please take this storm seriously. One of the most important lessons we learned after Hurricane Katrina was that there is no substitute for awareness and self-help, especially in the days before a hurricane is predicted to hit. Now is the time to prepare yourself, your family and your friends.”

Pay attention Democrats, this is how you are supposed to handle a crisis. Too bad Democrat Kathleen Blanco chose to wait for the Federal Government to do her job for her. I guess that's what comes from being a Big Government Democrat. Republicans know that you don't wait for FEMA to solve your immediate problems. Republicans know that FEMA is not, was not, and was never intended to be a first responder.

What do Democrats offer America? Compassionless incompetence and political expedience over solutions. Anybody out there remember Hurricane Floyd? Bill Clinton's FEMA failed in its duties even more than did President Bush's FEMA under Michael Brown's" supervision. A full month after Hurricane Floyd, the residents of North Carolina and Virginia were still waiting on relief. If Brown was incompetent, what does that say about Clinton appointee James Lee Witt?

The difference...there was no major city below sea-level (New Orleans) and no collapsed system of levees during Floyd, yet the aftermath was as disasterous. If the Katrina disaster was shameful, the Floyd disaster was criminal.

These merry comments at the expense of the lives of Democrat's fellow citizens prove beyond any doubt the truth McCain spoke when he said:

“This is a clear choice that the American people have. I had the courage and the judgment to say I would rather lose a political campaign than lose a war. It seems to me that Obama would rather lose a war in order to win a political campaign.”

Long Live Our American Republic!!!
