Contrary to liberal belief, state and local leaders have first and direct responsibility for handling emergencies in their sovereign area. The mayor is in charge of pre-storm evacuation with help from the governor as required. Both fell on their swords, with the mayor leaving 300 buses that could have been used for evacuation parked. Until and unless the state cedes authority to the Federal government in such cases, their was little that the federal government can legally do.<br /><br />Compare and contrast with the present situation: Under the US Constitution (if you need to find a copy, look in the White House bathrooms; I understand Michelle had some toilet paper made up special) the Federal government has control over all navigable US waterways. In short, there is little that the state can legally do beyond the shore line without Federal approval. <br /><br />The basic problem is that Obama's experience is as a community organizer. They can call themselves successful if they can simply get someone to sue the responsible party. They never have to come up with a plan to fix a problem or monitor how well it works. We are now seeing the logical outcome of that type of leadership.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11769241624759010694noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12391603.post-23609414638244045752010-06-02T22:26:10.151-07:002010-06-02T22:26:10.151-07:00* spelling correction - make that Sada, not "...* spelling correction - make that <i><b>Sada</b></i>, not "Dada"Christinewjchttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18434229284833642438noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12391603.post-64787173975616483232010-06-02T19:49:00.207-07:002010-06-02T19:49:00.207-07:00Very informative & well detailed!, March 20, 2...<i> Very informative & well detailed!, March 20, 2007 <br />By A. Browne "Angie" (USA) - See all my reviews<br />(REAL NAME) <br /><br />This review is from: The Next World War: What Prophecy Reveals About Extreme Islam and the West (Paperback) <br />Mr. Jeffrey dispenses supportive information to his opinion of the second coming of Jesus Christ! <br />Not only did he displayed supportive information on the second coming, but he thoroughly expelled the most forgotten details which occured in 2002 and beyond (for example, The Spetznaz truck (convoys) leaving Iraq, heading towards Syria and Iran; the disclosure of photos of the Spetznaz convoys (Russian-owned Spetznaz, that is) from the satellite imagery; reports supporting the cover up of nondisclosure removal of the missing WMD in these Spetznaz trucks by Bush and his CIA; contacts between Saddam Hussein and Osama Bin Laden in AFRICA in the 90's, etc.). <br />This book discloses missing facts and is an eye opener. <br />I truly believe, we are living those last days of age and the second coming is near.</i><br /><br />I just read that segment of the book today while I was waiting for my car being serviced.<br /><br />The explanation is long, but I will try to summarize. <br /><br />Apparently, during the breakup of the Soviet Union in 1989 and 1990, Russia repeatedly used a type of "emergency exit" ( where WMDs were moved by Russian Spetsnaz units out of uniform) and the WMDs Saddam bought from Russia went to Syria and Lebanon - to eradicate any evidence of the weaponry.<br /><br />Jeffrey writes:<br /><br /><i>A variety of respected sources, including Shaw and Saddam Hussein's former top general, Georges Dada, have confirmed that Russian Spetsnaz troops coordinated the removal of Iraq's WMD to Syria by large truck convoys and aircraft in the period just before the invasion of Iraq in April 2003. 7</i><br /><br />[Footnote: For more on this, see Georges Sada, <i>Saddam's Secrets</i> (Nashville: Integrity Publisher, 2006)]<br /><br />You might be asking why the Bush Admin. didn't reveal this with all of the countless attacks on the credibility of its prewar claims about Iraq's WMD and never publicly revealed the significant evidence that points to the removal of these weapons to Syria.<br /><br />Jeffrey writes:<br /><br /><i>According to both Shaw and Sada, the Bush administration's desire to protect Russia from international embarrassment motivated it to suppress this intelligence in the hope that Russia would assist America in limiting Iran's and North Korea's plans to achieve a nuclear warhead.</i><br /><br />Now, you can either believe the ranting talking heads of our media of mass disinformation, or Saddam's former top general - Georges Sada - on this issue.Christinewjchttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18434229284833642438noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12391603.post-43676492474581221032010-06-02T19:46:26.666-07:002010-06-02T19:46:26.666-07:00Kevin,
According to Dictionary.com, the term '...Kevin,<br /><br />According to Dictionary.com, the term <a href="http://dictionary.reference.com/browse/hype" rel="nofollow">'hype'</a> does not appear to fit your description. Perhaps another term would be more plausible?<br /><br />I do not think that you are correct regarding "spending trillions and making more enemies," either. You continually complain that the Bush Admin. made the wrong decisions to use pre-emptive military strikes against our enemies in the Middle East, but have you noticed that Obama's appeasement and "blame America first" strategy of trying to make "nice-nice" isn't working? It only makes us appear weaker!<br /><br />About the Oil Gusher problem. I just heard a great idea on the Michael Savage radio show. He stated that Obama's Admin. should have IMMEDIATELY sent U.S. Naval ships to the Gulf to set up boons(sp?), use methods to clean up the oil in the ocean, and utilize some sort of blockades (can't remember exactly what was said) to prevent the oil from reaching the beaches. Instead, Obama sends Eric Holder to threaten BP with lawsuits.<br /><br />What is wrong with this picture??<br /><br />About the Floatilla incident. Have you seen the video (that is only playing on Fox News - AFAIK) that shows that the "mission" was not just for humanitarian purposes? Israel (specifically the IDF) had no choice but to board the vessel to prevent it from violating the blockade procedure set up to keep weapons and terrorists out of Gaza. The ship had weapons on it!! Please, Kevin. Don't tell me that your ideology isn't getting in the way of logic! You need to watch the Glenn Beck show broadcast today. You will see the correct explanation of why Netanyahu was right to get Israeli soldiers on that ship. They were sent to inspect the Flotilla, and were IMMEDIATELY ATTACKED by these so-called "peaceful" humanitarians. Trouble is, many were members of Al Qaeda!<br /><br />Back to Jeffrey's book. He reveals something that was not disclosed by the Bush Admin. One reviewer (at Amazon) mentions it:<br /><br />(aee next comment)Christinewjchttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18434229284833642438noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12391603.post-58280329065275451552010-06-02T19:08:33.040-07:002010-06-02T19:08:33.040-07:00Yes Maggie. We need to keep the real issue front ...Yes Maggie. We need to keep the real issue front and center. Otherwise, it will be dismissed away as something that is not for us to worry about.<br /><br />I am currently re-reading a book written by Grant Jeffrey (in 2005) called <a href="http://www.amazon.com/Next-World-War-Prophecy-Reveals/dp/1400071062" rel="nofollow">The Next World War: What Prophecy Reveals About Extreme Islam and the West</a>.<br /><br />[Note to Kevin - if you are reading this I recommend the book to you. Jeffrey includes information about Saddam Hussein's role in the 9/11 attack on America.]<br /><br />You are correct, Maggie. The left (socialists, Marxists) has had a history of joining with Islamists in their ideology. It's amazing to me that many of them do not know enough about the Bible and end times prophecy to realize that they are on the WRONG side concerning our struggles of good vs. evil.Christinewjchttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18434229284833642438noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12391603.post-67342627406487134142010-06-02T17:54:27.912-07:002010-06-02T17:54:27.912-07:00Hi Christine, what I meant by 'hype' was t...Hi Christine, what I meant by 'hype' was that governments always need enemies. I wasn't around during the Cuban Missle Crisis, but I grew up with a fear of the Soviet Union. I ever took two years of Russian in college thinking that at some point it may be useful. <br /><br />Now obviously the U.S. was attacked in 9/11. I have no qualms whatsoever about going in and crushing those who did this. However, I do have qualms about attacking one country that seemed to have nothing to do with it. In the process we have spent trillions and made millions in new enemies. That doesn't make me feel safer.<br />I also have no qualms with people having the freedom to practice whatever religion they want to, and that includes Islam. I'm not sure if some people are going to propose outlawing it, but if that happened, it would be an attack on the very foundations that this country was built on. People should be able to practice any religion, but they also need to be responsible in their beliefs. Otherwise there should be penalties. <br /><br />About the horrible oil problem--there are problems that even presidents can't fix. What is he supposed to do? Go and plug it with his finger? On the other hand, New Orleans was destroyed and look what our last president did to help that mess. However, I don't believe there was too much he could do. Presidents aren't gods. People should stop expecting them to solve every single problem that crops up. I'm sure if President Bush could have fixed New Orleans with a snap of his fingers, he would have done so. I'm sure that President Obama would fix the gusher if he could snap his fingers as well. But in reality things don't happen like that. And slogans are just that--they are made for people who don't want to think too deeply about things. <br />In my opinion, Israel is not always correct in everything they do. There is no reason why the U.S. should pretend that that is the case. If there is going to be hope for middle east peace, both sides are going to have to give up something. Otherwise, that area will spend the next 3,000 years fighting, just like they have the past 3,000 years (or so).Kevinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04149591289204807405noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12391603.post-12879222507571694652010-06-02T08:13:04.776-07:002010-06-02T08:13:04.776-07:00My pleasure to return, Christine.

I can still vividly recall the frightening air raid drills that my generation went through at the elementary school I attended in N.J. It was at a time when the height of fear of a Russian nuclear attack <b>was very real</b> during the Kennedy era. If a nuke landed close enough, crouching beside the walls of a school basement would not have protected us anyway.<br /><br />Should I assume that you have no qualms regarding the ongoing attempts for the Islamization of America? You would be OK with that? Does it rank as just another "Change you can believe in??"<br /><br />If you do feel that way, then all I can say is sheesh!! What will it take to wake people like you up?<br /><br />Do you yet see Obama's incompetence in the Gulf Oil Gusher (it's not a "spill") Disaster? Do you not see his hostility towards Israel as a bad type of foreign policy? I could go on and on - the list is very long. <a href="http://newzeal.blogspot.com/" rel="nofollow">Go read the sidebar at New Zeal blog</a> to read about Obama's incompetence in leadership (or, more accurately, his deliberate destruction) of our Constitutional Republic form of government.<br /><br />Even former journalist supporters of Obama, like Maureen Dowd and Peggy Noonan are sitting up, taking notice, and writing about his incompetence!<br /><br />As Michael Savage once stated, Obama's <i>"hope and change"</i> has degenerated into <b>"dope and strange."</b>Christinewjchttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18434229284833642438noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12391603.post-56115398832616755092010-06-01T09:07:44.510-07:002010-06-01T09:07:44.510-07:00I'm glad that you keep coming back to read the...I'm glad that you keep coming back to read the posts here, Al!<br /><br />May your day be blessed as well.Christinewjchttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18434229284833642438noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12391603.post-52142773903944455042010-06-01T07:42:34.517-07:002010-06-01T07:42:34.517-07:00Hi Christine,
I think this whole 'bowing' ...Hi Christine,<br />I think this whole 'bowing' ordeal (or ordeals) is pretty strange. By sister-in-law's parents are from Taiwan. Whenever we see them I always take their hands and do a slight bow. They return the bow. It is what is done in their culture. It is a sign of respect. It doesn't mean I am a secret 'anything.' <br /><br />I sometimes wonder if the hype that is going on about the Islam vs. West is the same as the hype that went on between the Communist East and the Democratic West. For decades Communism was the big scary demon waiting to pounce on us. They even had nukes.
