Dems Call Lebanon Evac a "Mini-Katrina"
Leave it to the Democrats to compare our efforts to get Americans out of Lebanon to evacuation efforts after Hurricane Katrina:
"I think it is too bad that this is being treated like a mini-Katrina," said Harry Reid, the Senate Minority Leader. "These people are just being stranded in Lebanon and that is not a good reaction by this government."
[...]
"This is not anything that the State Department foresaw a day before it happened, much less Congress foreseeing a year or so in advance," said Ms. Pelosi. "The number of people involved here, the nature of the hostilities, are such that the urgency demands that these people be evacuated and they not have to pay their fare out."
Unbelievable. Trying to score points by using an unfortunate situation that exploded unexpectedly is beneath contempt. Question: why is it our government's responsibility to get them out when they went there of their own free will? They're doing the best they can.
Brought to you by the Democrats, who can't seem to give you anything else.

You are ,as they say ignorant, or just a rush clon. try looking at the facts! Use your OWN brain for once. Bush misled us into a war, cuts back on funding for vets, under funds education, screws with the national parks and protected lands, makes our troops buy there own armor for gods sake! Hell this country owes more money than you can shake a stick at!! Y0UR kids will pay that price.We can spend 3 billion a week for the war. ( 3 billion a week!!! ). but we can do nothing for AMERICANS! We can give tax breaks to corporate to move over seas,And but not to stay here!Well now, lets not stop there. lets VETO a bill that can give millions of americans hope to stop desease. Over 70% of americans and various medical groups wanted this, as well as well known republicans. to cure cancer, kids with diabedies, parkensens etc. bush says its life and has to be saved. but because they are thrown away instead of being used to help people,bush also promotes death!!. Curing people with desease IS pro-LIFE!!!!. Bush does what is good for bush.not the american people!!! All he wants is votes and does not care about peoples lives.So go ahead and follow the rushes and the carl roes of this world like lemmings to the sea!! political mud slingers. The rest of us are wakeing up and are trying to do whats right for the american people and our nation. It starts in november.
