Welcome to 201k.com - A Commonwealth Perspective.

Hmm, let's see what Democrats are saying about the Bush administration's attitude towards the poorest citizens of New Orleans:

[Democratic Senator Barack] Obama was asked on ABC's "This Week" whether there was racism in the lack of evacuation planning for poor, black residents of New Orleans. He said he would not refer to the government response in that way, but said there was a much deeper, long-term neglect.

"Whoever was in charge of planning was so detached from the realities of inner city life in New Orleans ... that they couldn't conceive of the notion that they couldn't load up their SUV's, put $100 worth of gas in there, put some sparkling water and drive off to a hotel and check in with a credit card," Obama said.

Oh, they can conceive of the notion that some people can't do that, Senator. They can conceive of it just fine.

They just don't give a s*** about those people.
