Most of us reading and participating to these forums agree on this, Katrina was terribly mis-managed.
Others though, outside of our liberal blogs, don't necessarily agree on the root causes and effects; worse, they may think that this "natural disaster" should not be politicized.
We need to focus our time and energy into real action, and reach out to the public opinion, outside the Kossak world. We need to spread our message and point of view, through Letters to the Editors of newspapers, neighborhood papers, ethnic or religious publications, college alumni magazines. Call local radios and TV stations. Write to our legislators.
More to make our message resonate, below the fold...
