Hillary Clinton on the vast White House conspiracy to keep Dems out of LA
Tags: hillary clinton, conspiracy theoriesThere she goes again with her conspiracies, but at least this time she's naming names:
SAN FRANCISCO — Senator Clinton told a largely friendly audience here Saturday night [1/28/06] that the slow pace of government-sponsored reconstruction following Hurricane Katrina was the result of a deliberate decision by the Bush administration and may have been motivated by a desire to discourage Democratic voters from returning to the devastated region.
“I think that basically we are now watching a deliberate policy of neglect take root,” Mrs. Clinton said during an appearance at a fund-raiser for legal services charities. “It is deeply troubling for any American to believe that your government would abandon such a huge part of our country and such an important part of our history.”
Mrs. Clinton said she suspected that the assignment of President Bush’s top political adviser, Karl Rove, to oversee the relief effort indicated that political mischief was afoot. “Cynical minds might suggest that the destruction of the Democratic vote in Louisiana was a mixed blessing. If you rebuild New Orleans, all those Democrats might come home,” she said during a 90-minute public interview conducted on an auditorium stage by a former television host, Jane Pauley.
A White House spokesman, Trent Duffy,rejected Mrs.Clinton’s claims that the administration was intentionally foot-dragging on disaster recovery in the Gulf. “It’s patently untrue and it’s unfortunate she would suggest such a thing,” he told The New York Sun yesterday…
She might indeed have a point, but it's obscured by her partisanship and the various other even further-left people who believe the same thing.

What ever happened to all that money that, then President Clinton and his henchman James Lee in charge of FEMA sent down to New Orleans and its civic leaders to do Population Protection and Planning during his eight years in office? As I remember their was specific talks about planning and evacuation and plans as to how they were going to accomplish this task, I further know they were required to exercise these plans and maintain them current that’s how they got all this tax payers money to start with. I was stunned when I heard they were going to put all these people in the coliseum because in planning for a disaster one of the first thing you learn is to expect you will lose all you utilities (lights, water, electrical) and then you have several thousand people doing without. State and Local where were you?
