#2 Racially polarizing

I assume that's the PC term for "racist freak".

#4 One version of this is that Nagin had told Louis that a crater had been reported or seen under the spot where the levee had failed. Farrakhan added the blown up part himself.
A crater could have been caused by water seeping under the concrete levee barrier, scouring away the soil until the concrete wall collapsed into it. You see this with dam failure a lot.

#5 Hey STEVE,
I didn't mean investigate if there was explosives used, that is indeed ludicrous.Just meant screwy louie/nagin conspiacy.

#7 Why doesn't Nagin complain publicly and loudly about this racist/liar who distorted what was actually said?

Silence on this issue on Nagin's part is about as bad as the accusations themselves.

#8 Steve -- my theory is that the current could have scoured away the soil in a way the looks like a crater.

Or, the simplest theory is that Farrakhan's a racist freak and is making stuff up in order to provoke another race riot. God knows I've seen that happen before.

#9 Mayor Noggin and Farrakhcon may be right. Wasn't there pictures of "W" swimming around the levees while on his summer vacation?

And, where was he during the unexplained four months of National Guard duty.

I understand Cheney is an excellent swimmer and knows people from Halliburton too....

#10 Looks as if I swerved right into the truth with my question in yesterday's Farrakhan thread. "Ya think maybe Farrakhan is gettin' all this inside info from Hizzoner Nagin?"

#11 Demo mayors like to keep the semi and fully fuzzy muzzy vote close so they indulge Louie and lesser more mainstream Louie Jr.'s. They send lackies to attend the hate rallies and lend credibility and political legitimacy to these hate breeders. They will not say a bad thing about this type of scum even if cornered at a press conference and confronted with the level of hatred entailed in the activities of these "clergymen." I'd be amazed if Nagin would have the guts to politically cap Louie in the media. He, like alot of his peers, is Louie's Uncle Tom.

#12 Put it to Nagin, publicly, and if he backs down from accusing Louie of lying, rip him a new one. No $ for lying hacks

#13 Nagin was telling the truth about the bomb. What he didn't say was the bomb was set by local officials so they could then tap into $250 Billion worth of fix up funds.

#14 Farrakhan: Katrina Gives March Momentum
CHICAGO - Nation of Islam leader Louis Farrakhan said the suffering of Hurricane Katrina victims has brought black Americans together.
"Katrina is our reason," he said, urging the hundreds of attendees to transform any anger into "constructive energy to channel the movement." The movement is his Millions More Movement, formerly the Million Man March, which will commemorate its 10th anniversary with an Oct. 15 rally on the National Mall in Washington.

Hmmmmmmmmmmmm? Where were you on that Sunday Katrina hit, Louie?

#15 Used to be bizarre conspiracy theories were consigned to a couple of key issues...JFK's murder for example. Nowadays, EVERY single happening in the world spwans its own conspiracy. "Bush knocked down the twin towers"..."the army blew up the levees"..."Iraq is about Halliburton"..."Katrina occurred because we didn't sign Kyoto"..."the moon landings were a fraud"...etc, etc

Tellingly, all these absurdities emanate from the left.

#16 You're oh so close Cornelius. But all those conspiracies were about one thing. The rocks, the MOON ROCKS. WE GOTTA TAKE 'EM BACK NOW!

#18 Cripes--like RC says, those "craters" had to have been scour from water lapping over the levee or pouring over the breach and widening it. Any kid with an aquarium would recognize that from pouring in water and watching it dig holes in the gravel, but that's way beyond Farrakhan's or Nagin's IQ level.
