Newt Gingrich goes off the deep end

"How can you have the mess we have in New Orleans, and not have had deep investigations of the federal government, the state government, the city government, and the failure of citizenship in the Ninth Ward, where 22,000 people were so uneducated and so unprepared, they literally couldn't get out of the way of a hurricane." (emphasis mine)

Comments, anybody? I'm just at a total loss for words, here.

Makes me want to kill.
I've stopped reading any news regarding Katrina...it puts me in danger of bursting a blood vessel and/or grabbing a copy of Catcher in the Rye and a high powered rifle then finding a bell tower.
Y'know, I'm plenty educated and uber-prepared for anything, but the lack of a car, credit cards, and a place to go made it kind of difficult to evacuate.
And how about the failure of citizenship that caused groups of us to clear the streets, set up a mash unit, bring food water and meds to those who needed it, and wander the neighborhoods armed in order to protect each other. Bad citizens, indeed. I guess we should have starved/died of thirst/been shot by crackheads while waiting for our government to step in, instead.
ARRRRRRGH!
Bunnies, fluffy clouds, kittens. Okay, I feel better now.
I swear that if another Republican gets elected I'm going to emigrate.

Way ahead of you.. Geektopia, New Zealand... starting, err, about 2012 the way finances are working out... maybe sooner though the way the politics are going downhill.

2012 is the end of the world, at least that's what those goofy Mayans tell me. Then again, nothing bad ever happens in New Zealand, so if we time it right we'll be fine. ;)
