Make Levees, Not War

From Laura Flanders on CommonDreams:

Amid the bodies that should not be dead in the putrid New Orleans water, I can only hope the conservatives backlash is buried there in that toxic pit.

Just as Mayor Ray Nagin, who let rip last week about his people’s abandonment on WWL radio, is now a mayor without a city. We Americans are a people without a government.

We are not Refugees vs. Americans, National Guard vs. Insurgents. We are one people in search of a government. A government that would serve us, not the reverse; a government that prioritizes us.

As my favorite t-shirt of the moment reads: “Make levees not war.”

More.
