Senator Harry Reid, gigantic pork scooper from Nevada and Democrat Leader in the Senate is taking politics to a new low. Members of his party should be concerned because I think the country has had enough of what Mr. Reid wants in the face of the next hurricane.
Hurricane Rita is in the gulf and moving toward Texas and Federal and of course, state officials are making preparations to evacuate Galveston Texas. Galveston is the scene of the worst hurricane disaster or any disaster in our history. Over 6,000 people died in 1900 when a hurricane flooded the city with a huge storm surge.
The 14 foot seawall has never been tested in Galveston since it was built and Rita is expected to have a storm surge of 20 to 25 feet. Lost in the news of Katrina was that before the storm hit Louisiana, Texas officials were not only preparing for possible evacuees but also preparing in case Katrina came farther west. They were preparing.
Now that Texas is once again preparing for a storm that actually has a very good chance of hitting them Senator Harry Reid wants to know why they are having all this preparation and it wasn't done in Louisiana. Is this blame before maybe people die? Is this the blood in the water senario so the feeding frenzy can begin before people are even out of harms way? Is this some kind of profit for the Democrat Party; something to be gained with their accusations and race baiting and cheap profiteering at the expense of what could be victims and officials that are trying their best?
Is this blaming people for being prepared? Considering there is going to be an investigation into all levels of government over Katrina, what is Mr. Reid seeking. Truth, consequences or booty like a pirate taking advantage during the storm?
Senator Reid is making noise about investigating government response into Katrina especially since Texas is doing so much right now. I guess Texas should have been more low key. Of course they have been ready for hurricanes since well before Katrina but wouldn't you think they would have learned something extra from Katrina? Is that not a good thing with Rita in the gulf and threatening? If you watch the news they are talking about nothing else.
Politicians, any politicians of the Republicans or Democrats, that try to profit politically from Katrina, Rita or any officials that now try to save property and lives is one sick puppy and I see Harry Reid throwing up right there in our media. Lives Mr. Reid. Preparation Mr. Reid. Mississippi, Florida, Alabama, Louisiana and Texas Mr. Reid. Our fellow citizens, white, black, rich, poor and hopefully alive because of preparation. You didn't say anything about Jeb Bush and his preparations for Rita. He does a good job, doesn't he?
Profit from it in Nevada Mr. Reid. What a shame you are trying to politically and not at the very least waiting until the storm passes. Partisans will no doubt applaud you in your blood lust but at least, maybe the people of Texas are too busy to worry about your ill thought words coupled with your ill timing. You should be ashamed. :duel
