Extreme Weather Act of God? Tell Swedes & Cubans about It!

New York -- The Times of London has seen fit to print a story claiming it was all an Act of God, not an Act of Bush. Yep, its U.S. editor tells us Katrina and the subsequent collapse of New Orleans' long-neglected levees resulting in over a thousand corpses is no fault of the Bush regime and its Death Society. Not even 10% of it.

You see, it's all in the "extreme weather" in Amerika which "is measured in the thousands of people it kills." Tell this to the Dutch and the Swedes who are no stranger to the most extreme of weather (i.e. the Swedish winter storms) or bad environments (all of Amsterdam is below water), but somehow have managed to escape disaster in the thousands of killed.

And let's not forget the Cuba and Taiwan which have faced Category 5 typhoons just recently, but did not suffer the same kinds of casualties!

This article is nothing but Mortalist propaganda. The kind churned out by The Death Society we live in to make us accept the unacceptable.

ImmorTalist Party Opposes Roberts Nomination

Washington -- We can now see how utterly bankrupt the Democrats are. They are no opposition party. No opposition party worth its name would give a stealth candidate for the Religious Right like Roberts a free pass to the U.S. Supreme Court. This is a man who was against desegreation, against civil rights for blacks, against reproductive freedom. An extremist reactionary Catholic who will be the next Chief Justice.

If he is not, the Bush regime can easily prove it. By releasing all the information about him while he labored in the vineyard of extremist ultra-right-wing politics. But of course the regime refuses to do that. It refuses to release sufficient info about Roberts and demands the Democrats and U.S. Senate rubberstamp its choice. This is not what the Constitution demands of the U.S. Senate.

With Roberts' background, the burden should be on the regime to prove he is not an extremist.

But except for a handful, like Ted Kennedy and Harry Reid, most Democratic senators are all too obliging. One Democratic senator claimed he sees no reason to vote against Roberts. Well, of course not, since the White House has refused to release any info on this stealth candidate.

A dark chapter as Empire slips into the abyss. History will judge this lack of opposition harshly.

Katrina shows how far the U.S. has fallen. Category 5 hurricanes or typhoons have hit Taiwan, China, Cuba, and none of these countries have suffered the kind of devastation that New Orleans did.

Why?

Because none of these countries have allowed their levees and their basic infrastructure to deteriorate and collapse as the U.S. regime has. Yes, it is not an act of God. It is an act of Bush.

Does it take so much to understand that if you neglect your levees since the time of Franklin Delano Roosevelt, it is an accident waiting to happen. Especially if a Category 5 hurricane materializes.

But it is the nature of the Death Society that it has other priorities. Like an insane war in Iraq that is as unwinnable and as unstrategic as Vietnam. Not only has it killed close to 2,000 American boys, not to mention maim over 15,000 more, it has also robbed Americans of their future. It is a downright crime.

New Orleans Shows U.S. Now a Failed State

New York -- Why do the scenes from New Orleans so shock Americans and the world? Because they're what we expect to see in Bangladesh, not the world's "richest" society. Instead, what we've seen is gross negligence, incompetence, paralysis, and outrageous misappropriation of scarce resources. All the symptoms of a failed state. The Mortalist failed state.

China, Taiwan and Cuba were recently hit by horrendous hurricanes too. Yet they did not suffer the same devastation in human lives or properties that New Orleans and surrounding states did. Why? Because those governments did what had to be done. Like evacuating people. Unlike the Bush Regime, even Fidel's Cuba evacuated 1.5 million people to higher grounds and suffered not one casualty. And not just the patrons of plush hotels!

A responsible state does not allow its basic infrastructure to rot and collapse, putting its citizens' lives at mortal risk. As Andrew Young, the former mayor of Atlanta, pointed out, the levees in New Orleans have not been maintained or repaired basically since the time of President Franklin D. Roosevelt. So no surprise it didn't hold up. Only a failed state would allow that to happen, while allowing its military and its empire to suck up all the dwindling resources.

Only a grossly-negligent, sclerotic, and inept failed state would allow the disaster that is New Orleans to happen. No, Bush Junior is lying again. And coming up with lame excuses again. Just like the "great leaders" of third-world dictatorships. FEMA (Federal Emergency Management Agency) knew for a long time that a natural disaster like this is most likely to hit New Orleans. It's one of the top-three disaster scenarios. For all too many years. And yet when it happened, this failed state was caught with its pants scandalously down.

Yes, it is shocking. To call the U.S. a failed state. After all, it's supposedly the world's "richest" and only Superpower. And it is more used to calling others failed states than to thinking of itself as one. But under Bush Junior's regime, and in the dying days of Mortalist Empire, the U.S. is just that. A failed state. By its own definition and by any other definition of a failed state.

When the Empire goes from rigor mortis to officially dead, the American people -- like the Germans, Japanese, and French --will live so much better! As New Orleans show, despite the bloated budgets for "Homeland Security," there is no security at all. Zip. Nada. Zilch. And the biggest threat to Americans is Not Terrorism.
