Unfortuantely, I think Katrina was a learning experience for us. We just were not prepared for that massive of a storm. I know people will say that we had plenty of warning, but I think the Fedreal governement trusted the state governments to actually spend the money they were getting on the things they were suppose to. Such as repairs on the levees and such.
However, tragic Katrina was we have to learn from the mistakes we made and make sure they do not happen again. As for comparing war to a hurricane, there is none. Our military might has nothing to do with our ability to respond to natural disasters. But, I do wish our governement, Democrats and Republicans alike, would care more about our domestic problems and a little less about out international ones.

What was retarded was the lack of leadership in New Orleans days before Katrina hit. Whats even more stupid is living below sea level on the coast line. So why should the government even deal with stupid people who choose live in a place that is a disaster waiting to happen?

Yes how does that question make sense? Our country invaded and kicked Iraq's a*s before Katrina hit. Also we did deal with it, it just took some time. I hate people like you that criticize everything, you know you liberals are killing this country right? So if you want to help change your "retarded" views.

Iraq can be defeated but Katrina is a natural disaster whose power was not even anticipated. Thus, human activity can be predicted like Saddam unlike Katrina where people did not expect what to happen. Thus, there was no preparation made for Katrina's coming.

Not retarded at all Ebee. They are two completely different and mutually exclusive events and activities that had their own sets of goals and objectives, planned or not.
You sound like a Bush hater. Or just the United States in general?

Hehehehehe......... Like I always tell people, they just couldn't understand it. When the height of stupidity peaks, we all fall for it. When disasters hits home, we just let people drown. The Libs are saying, "Uh, uh, I'm not touching on that one." Now somehow the Reps & Libs are both saying,"You screwed up, you fix it." And the idiots, now are trying to find a way out, looking for ways to find their fall guy. Looking and searching hard where they may catch one screwing off somewhere. Who can this be this time? Heheheheheh.........

All I have to say... is... if the states that were hit by Katrina vote for another dumb-*** Republican I will think.
"Hey, they got what they deserved."
SO APPARENT after George W Bush sits and watches as states who voted for him are left out to dry in the wake of the hurricane.
Furthermore, if a HURRICANE is coming, and they tell you to leave... do it... I don't care if you are in a wheel chair... Get out of the path of it.

Good question. What the hell are Americans doing in Iraq without any idea of that they are doing. There was no plan for how to win the peace.
