What A Difference A Republican Governor Makes

That's Ann Coulter's conclusion. Liberals WANTED another "Katrina" so they could again "blame it on Bush," as they do EVERYTHING except the GOOD things, like the fact that we haven't had an Islamic terrorist attack in this country for SEVEN YEARS (So I used the word "Islamic." So sue me!). But you'd never realize it if you listen to the liberal media. Liberal "shockumentary" maker Michael Moore says the hurricane that was approaching New Orleans during the GOP Convention is "proof there is a God," which is about as stupid a statement as most liberals make. But a Republican governor in Louisiana helped minimize the damage. I'd even bet he told Democrat Mayor Ray Nagin to "be sure and get those school buses out of harm's way so they can be used, this time." I don't think Nagin is smart enough to have done it on his own, without instructions from someone smarter than he is (So I called a stupid black man "stupid." So sue me.). "As many have pointed out, the reason elected officials tend to neglect infrastructure project issues, like reinforcing levees in New Orleans and bridges in Minneapolis, is that there's no glory when a bridge doesn't collapse. There are no round-the-clock news specials when the levees hold. You can't even name an overpass retrofitting project after yourself -- it just looks too silly. But everyone's taxes go up to pay for the reinforcements. Preventing another terrorist attack is like that. There is no media coverage when another 9/11 doesn't happen. We can thank God that President George Bush didn't care about doing the safe thing for himself; he cared about keeping Americans safe. And he has, for seven years." And is he getting any credit for that? Not from the liberal media! (Ann Coulter)
