It shows a lack of caring along with being irresponsible. Or are they so racist that they don't care if the hispanics are sicken or even die? I have lost all respect for Fox news and I hope they will replay the speech in spanish Maybe saving lives What fox news did breaking away from the Mayor speaking in Spanish to warn of dangers of the water was horrible.

There is a prevalent attitude of Entitlement in the US today. From what I see mostly in the big cities. Thus big cities like New Orleans there are a lot of residents that are "entitled" to assistance despite their choice to ignore government, whether it be local or Federal, requests to evacuate.

What amazes me is that the national media failed to recognize that Baton Rouge is now the largest city in the state of Louisiana thanks to Katrina. It was Baton Rouge that took the brunt of Gustav. It will take months for us to fully recouperate. My small business is teetering on the brink of extinction thanks to Gustav. There are hundreds like me in Baton Rouge alone, not to mention the other areas of the state that were affected by Gustav. I am still in the midst of Gustav recovery.

Doucet Fri, 12 Sep 2008 16:19:31 +0000 http://foxtracker.wordpress.com/?p=2765#comment-56689 I live in one of those small towns in Louisiana that was hit hard but all we ever heard was how bad the Baton Rouge area was hit and how well New Orleans did. If they spoke of Pointe Coupee Parish, it was the New Roads area and that is not the area we live in. Thank you for not forgetting the small town folks. I do believe that Katrina taught this state a valuable lesson and Jindal as well as the other organizations came through for us. 4 tarps on my roof, two weeks without power, my children still haven't returned to school and I wake up this morning to leaking windows and no electricity. I'm not sure how much more our small town can take.

Try to go to the place they think it will be the worst!! Can't wait for one to get 'blown away' --- on live TV!

I can't imagine that type of a storm. We live by the ocean in Oregon. As we look at the power that is there, we know the importance of protecting the people who live in Texas. May God watch over your State and the surroundings. Our family will be praying for all those who live in Texas. I can’t imagine that type of a storm. We live by the ocean in Oregon.

New Orleans recieved a lot of money to rebuild and has somehow managed to mismanage these funds, "Suprise, Suprise". What about Cameron Parish and some of the lower lying parishes where the hard workers are? Let’s hear mor about the Parishes that haven’t been rebuilt since Katrina and Rita.

Plus with the fact preparedness of FEMA and other services, we can rest assured that peoples lives wont be in jeopardy.
