Why is manipulative news a surprise to anyone? News is just like politics itself: play to your base and garner votes (ratings)

[b smooth 202]

 

[rashi]

Who would want to applaud George H.W. Bush's NWO Part Duex anyway? The applause was probably pre-recorded anyway like everything else this mirage we call the Barack Obama already is.

 

[manglor]

Meh who cares?

Almost every politician has crowds full of people just there to cheer on demand so it's not like applause means anything anyway.

 

[charmcitykid]

obama is a puppet anyway. this is the WWE.

i swear to god if people had any sense of history theyd be appalled by obamas speech, put the party sheep will always flock ... and if Bush was still in office there would be so much hate for this oil spill it would be disgusting ... im still waiting for young jeezy or wayne to write a song blaming obama for being so slow to clean up louisiana's coast ... if it was Bush in office he'd be accused of trying to kill black people again ...

While that's true, it's pretty sad that a NEWS organization would go out of their way to misrepresent the audiences reaction to his speech and try to portray it more negatively.

yeah because they are similar situations


people drowned in the streets...
 

#!$!%


You literally think Obama did not have any meetings with everybody he could day of the occurrence and everyday after?.... People drowning in the streets could have been saved... Oil a mile deep in the ocean is not easy to stop.. You want to blame someone blame Haliburton and BP... They +$%+#% up.. Blame who regulated... Obama has no blame in this except for looking stupid by advocating off shore drilling....


BP Oil Spill is Obama's Katrina? get out of here you idiot

And you have the nerve saying if people had any sense of history

You literally dont think Bush had meetings the day after Katrina and meetings as soon as they knew the levy's broke? A Hurricane and flooding is not easy to stop. You want to blame someone? Blame the people who stayed in New Orleans, or blame the engineers who built everything.

I hope you see what I did there...

I agree, people and fish are two totally different things but I agree that Obama hasn't been handling this situation well. Also, were was the outcry when Nashville was under water? Did Obama even go to Nashville?

You do realize it took Obama 12 days before he even made it down to the coast? If this was Bush he would have been ROASTED

Yeah Bush did take meetings...

Before the hurricane even hit HE WAS TOLD THE HURRICANE WOULD BE BIG AND THE LEVY WOULD BREAK...

WHAT DID HE DO? NOTHING

 

[moneyisthemotive]

first, i would like you to point out where i said this is Obama's Katrina ... ... ... i'll wait ... ... ...

next, id like you to point out where i said the oil spill is Obama's fault ... ... ... i'll wait ... ... ...

lastly, i'd like you to start coming into every thread about Obama with an open mind instead of turning your "O M G" fuse on and lashing out at everything anyone says that could possibly even remotely be negative about the guy ... any person with ANY type of political knowledge and fair mindedness would tell you Obama has been a DISASTER as a president so far ... the far left hates him, the right definitely hates him and there isnt an independent in our country who will re-elect him as of right now ... maybe he will turn it around, but stop with your @#$% ... you always parade around political threads throwing your liberal tirades and it's getting old ...

and by the way, you say all he looks stupid for is offshore drilling ... why dont you take that cue and focus your political hatred toward the president YOU elected, straight FLIPPING on damn near every important issue he ran on ... see how that works out for you ...

[h1]Documents Show Katrina Warnings Ignored[/h1]

[h2]White House Briefed on Levee Breach Two Days Before Storm Hit[/h2]

By LUIS MARTINEZ

Jan. 24, 2006


Documents released today by Congress show that two days before Hurricane Katrina devastated New Orleans, the White House received detailed damage forecasts from Homeland Security officials predicting that the city's levees might be overtopped or breached.

Yet in the days after the storm struck on Aug. 29, federal officials, including President Bush, said the levee breaches could not have been foreseen.

Embattled former FEMA Director Michael Brown said, "I think we were all taken aback by the fact that the levees did break in so many places and caused such widespread devastation."

Homeland Security Director Michael Chertoff said, "I will tell you that really that perfect storm of combination of catastrophes exceeded the foresight of the planners and maybe anybody's foresight."

And on Sept. 1, Bush told "Good Morning America": ''I don't think anyone anticipated the breach of the levees" that flooded New Orleans.

The documents provided today by the Senate Homeland Security and Government Affairs Committee, however, showed that the federal agencies overseen by Brown and Chertoff had compiled damage forecasts for the White House at least 48 hours before the storm's landfall that predicted levee overtopping and breaches.
[h4] 'Die Was Cast'[/h4]
From an engineering standpoint, experts contacted today by ABC News don't believe anything could have been done to shore up the levees even with the advance warning because of existing design flaws in the levee system.

"The die was cast," said Dr. Ray Seed at the University of California at Berkeley, who is part of a review team funded by the National Science Foundation that's investigating the levee breaches. "Nothing could have been done."

Emergency preparedness experts have said in the past that additional advance warning could also have been used by federal officials to press local officials to evacuate those New Orleans residents without easy access to transportation. It's been estimated that about 100,000 New Orleans residents were left behind when Katrina struck.

Seed agreed, saying the advance warning "could have been used by the federal government to stage additional resources in the city and massively improved the FEMA response."

Furthermore, he said the ongoing Science Foundation study has found that the school buses frequently seen in their flooded parking spaces could have been used to evacuate stranded residents. After the storm struck, their gas tanks were found to be full and they were used in evacuations.
[h4] No Answers From White House [/h4]
On Aug. 27, two days before the storm made landfall, FEMA had prepared a slide presentation for White House officials. The FEMA slides said a Category 4 storm surge "could greatly overtop levees and protective systems." It's unclear who at the White House received this briefing or how its contents were distributed afterward.

Hours before the storm made landfall, the White House Situation Room received a report prepared by the Department of Homeland Security in which experts predicted flooding "could leave the New Orleans metro area submerged for weeks or months." The report also said that hurricane damage could cost $10 billion to $14 billion.

At a hearing today, Sen. Joseph Lieberman, D-Conn., said the White House has maintained a "refusal to answer" stance regarding questions and document requests by congressional investigators looking at the federal government's response to Katrina.

"Almost every question our staff has asked federal agency witnesses regarding conversations with or involvement of the White House has been met with a response that they could not answer on direction of the White House," Lieberman said.

Brown has said that he notified the White House of his concerns about the storm on the weekend before it struck. Lieberman said that in a meeting with congressional investigators yesterday, Brown was advised by agency lawyers not to answer specific questions about whether he'd spoken to Bush and Vice President %*#$ Cheney in the days leading up to the storm.

Congressional investigators aren't the only ones facing difficulties in receiving information from the federal government. The National Science Foundation study researchers have encountered delays in receiving documents from the Army Corps of Engineers relevant to their review of the levee breaches.

BP is a      private corporation whereas the levees were government controlled.
